Solid, compact metronome with awesome voice counting

Product Review I've been using the Beatlab mini for several months, mostly while practicing drumset and on a drum pad. Overall I think it's really really good, though not perfect. Strengths: 1) Voice counting, both male and female voice. I really wanted voice counting ("one", "two", "three", etc) to practice drums. This delivers. I find voice helps me keep track of measures and phrases more than the accented counts, which it can do too. 2) Really compact. It's very easy to throw this is a drumstick bag or guitar case. 3) The core features are great, just like the other Korg metronomes I've used: subdivisions, voices, reliability. OK but not great -- The user interface takes some getting used to. I often change the number of beats or subdivisions when I intend to change the BPM (I forget to hit the big red Tempo button first to change the mode). this isn't a deal breaker but it's a little frustrating. Weaknesses: The clip/stand combo on the back is a wire thing and flimsy. It doesn't always hold it upright when I have headphones plugged into it. It also feels like it could snap off, though to be fair it hasn't yet. Not sure -- The beat training thing is cool and it works but I haven't (yet) found it compelling to use extensively to practice time-keeping/tempo skills. The voice that tells you if you're on or off beat can get repetitive/annoying but I don't consider that a dealbreaker. OverallI recommend this is you want a small, dedicated hardware metronome with voice counting, though I recognize it's a bit pricey just for that subset of its features.

Amazing tool but the mic can be a bit finicky!

Product Review Great learning tool wish I would of ordered one years ago for guitar bass or drums! The mic can be touchy! Aside from that this thing is great! Try the training mode out on it!

Product Review This is easy to use and setup. Has a rhythm trainer feature not found in most metronomes. Great tool for someone like me that is a horn player learning the drums.
