Fantastic

While this device is a bit spendy it does everything I need and more. The accuracy, fuctionality and ease of use is remarkable. If you are looking for a cadillac of metronomes that can help improve ... read more [+]your playing, this is it. Outstanding in every way!!
The only complaint I have is that they send a battery and you need to buy the charger if you want to. If I would have known that upfront, I would have ordered it as well. It is not clear when buying on line. close [-]

This is a remarkable unit. Though I'm only using a couple of features (mainly the "boom/chick" pattern; making it a very expensive metronome) it makes practicing with this unit fun and, thus, will ho... read more [+]pefully contribute to my growth as a musician.
I will say that the manual is terrible. For a unit that has so many capabilities, the Owner's Manual is sadly lacking. There is nothing in it to help someone learn how to use all the different elements of the unit. From my perspective this is inexcusable. Many less complex units have much more complete manuals. close [-]

Our Customers Say...

Ninety-five percent of everything in this studio came from Sweetwater. My Sales Engineer is a lifesaver. I started working with him around 2005, talking to him about what my vision was for the studio. He was right there all the way.
