Body Beat metronome

Blind Bruce · 09-09-2009, 10:37 AM

Has anybody used the Body Beat vibrating metronome? I have a "regular" electronic one but I cannot hear the clicks above the sound of the trumpet. Nor can I see the LED "strobe" light as my vision has all it can do to see two notes at a time.
I would have to order one to try it out as no one in town has one.
I am concerned about the length of the beat and my response time to feeling it.

I recently tried a friend's and loved it- it was great for conducting practice as well as trumpet, and the subdivisions are easy to feel. My only complaint with it is that the belt unit is kind of big- hopefully they will make it smaller in future versions.
