It also has a volume control.<BR/><BR/>I wish I had a dime for every hour I had to use it, because I (like a lot of instrumentalists) tend to rush the passages that have a lot of notes, and slow down the passages that have fewer notes.<BR/><BR/>With flute music, there's always a lot of sixteenth notes. Metronomes are a must.<BR/><BR/>My mother's metronome was sort of cockeyed after awhile, with an uneven tick TICK tick TICK tick TICk, that made a limping sound. <BR/><BR/>My electronic metronome also has a concert (440) A built in.<BR/><BR/>It's really slick. <BR/><BR/>It also takes a licking and keeps on ticking.
