and yes I id spell it correctly ![[Smile]](/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif)
I've had this item for a few weeks now and have tried using it for practice everyday. It's basically a metronome that fits in your ear. I was expecting an earbud sort of affair, but instead it clips onto your lobe and rests in the ear.
It has all of the setup options you would expect with different BPM's and divisions.
For me I find it too quiet and too big, there is no isolation so the drum sounds get in your ear and over power the unit. I can't wear my headphones over it because of it's physical size.
As an almost subliminal beat it's good and I have found it very useful for my practice sessions.
In short, if you don't have a metronome you could do a lot worse than spending beer money on one of these.

Hey, I just bought one of those and I am also happy with it. I thought it would be smaller when I first saw it, but I can deal with it's size. The reason I bought it was to help keep my double bass drumming steady and found it useful for other things too. I agree with you that it's a great buy and would suggest to my friends.

I think the unit itself was originally developed for string section musicians like guitarists and bass players etc... Drummers are alot louder and it is very hard to hear the click of the metronome over that noise. I have the same metronome and use it between songs during rehearsal or performing. I let it go for about 10 seconds to get the feel of the tempo set and then give the four count or whatever count and drop the metronome aside and start playing and just try to keep steady with that tempo. Keep in mind though that this unit is amazing while playing with a practice pad. Bounce.
