Korg MA-2 Digital Metronome for Orchestral Instruments w/ Large Display and 400-Hours Battery Life - Black/Red

Easy and intuitive

This is the second Korg metronome I have purchased, and I have never purchased any other kind. I was happy with the first one, but I went years without using it, and left the batteries in it, so of course, they eventually leaked. I like the sound of a traditional pendulum metronome better, as well as the visual signal, but this works fine for keeping the beat, differentiating the first beat from the rest, and cluing me in to the correct speed. It came the next day. Good value for the money.

I made the mistake of buying this as all the pictures made it look like a metronome and a tuner. while you 'can' use it to tune...you'd have to play so quietly on a trumpet that your embouchure would change ruining your tune. But I can still use it as a metronome at least, and it's functional. The 'tone out' function is useless if you're playing an instrument with any kind of volume at all. But that's on me for not reading the full product description.

It works as advertised. It's not the loudest, probably best for personal use. I can't believe I found a phone app that wants a monthly subscription for a friggin metronome! No way, I'll buy this and use it for years instead.

Korg MA-2 is a neat device to have if you played an instrument in the pass, but you are a little rough around the edges and need to get back on track. The Korg MA-2 has all the features you need like tap beat and how long you can tap beat for 10 minutes or an hour. Setting for quarter notes etc. Sweeping metronome electronic hand plus seven of the features you need if you are a drummer or guitarist or pianist. great place to start happy playing virtuoso.

This metronome works fine, but I hated the tone. It is an awful clattering beep that grates on my ears. I would not recommend. I wish they had kept the tone of the MA-30 which had a nice neutral beep.

I bought this for my son for him to practice piano. We love that its small and has multiple functions. He is a beginner in piano and needed this for the tempo while practicing, as he gets better I like that we can change the tempo slowly to a higher and faster one. Its also great for on the go fits perfect in pockets.

Stepchild has been using this for 2 years. No complaints.
