The Boss DB-60 Is Great!

I had narrowed my metronome search down to three... The DB-30, DB-60 and the Korg MA-30. My main concerns were size and audio quality of the click (tone and volume). After finding online demos of the units I bought the DB-60 and am so glad I did. While not exactly "pocket" size, it is about the size of an index card and plenty loud with good tone.

The features are great! Up to 17 beats per measure, subdivisions with adjustable volumes, tap tempo, memory settings, pre-programmed rhythms, reference pitches and much more. A lot of the features I would expect on a more expensive and larger unit.

All I can say is this unit is everything I was looking for. Buy it and you won't be dissapointed!

Great metronome

I bought this for our drummers at church to use. They use the memory function to call up the tempo for each song. They can't hear it, but can watch the lights and swinging needle. They said they really like the swinging needle - even if we're not right on you can still tell if the tempo is holding steady.

A great tool for any musician

I use the DB-60 in my music lessons and for playing drums at church. It is very easy to use and has more features than I know what to do with. I especially like the 8 memory presets that allow me to quickly switch from one tempo to the next. The display shows the sway of the metronome, which I appreciate more than just the blinking light of other metronomes. The tap tempo, timer, and tuner are added bonuses. The only thing I'd change about the DB-60 is to make it a little bit louder volume for headphones.
