3 out of 5 stars Wanted a click metronome   August 12, 2008
I bought this based on at least two other reviews that described the sound it makes as a "click". It is not a click it is a high pitched electronic "beep". That beep gets lost with notes played by guitar, etc. It also could be louder so I took two stars off for these two drawbacks. Otherwise it keeps time like it is supposed to. Look elsewhere if you wanted a click sound metronome.


5 out of 5 stars this metronome is great!   August 11, 2008
I got this metronome to help keep the tempo of a song my quartet was singing. It helped us tremendously. I like the fact it has a pitch pipe on it also!


4 out of 5 stars Good value for the $   August 10, 2008
Works fine for what I needed it for. It does a lot more that I have yet to learn about. Good value for the money.


5 out of 5 stars Korg MA-30 Metronome   August 8, 2008
This is a great compact metronome. Easy to use...There are several rhythmic options for subdividing the beat, an octave chromatic scale for tuning that may be adjusted to 'Baroque' pitch if you need it or higher [Some instruments, flutes in particular are being tuned to A-442.] There is a volume control and what I like is its ability to move up or down 1 digit at a time. The 'old' metronome moves in increments of '2', '4' & '6'. I have recommended this metronome to my students and they are also happy with it.
