This metronome is great and gives you the best value for your money!The Tapping feature is great!I miss the odd time feature other metronomes have...
I just tried this one time and I wish every music teacher had one! First of all, the click is very loud. So a drummer can mount it on a cymbal stand, the female screw hole is included, and actually play along. The separate dials on the upper half of the face are INDIVIDUAL VOLUME KNOBS! So you can hear which ever subdivision of the beat you'd like! This teaches students what the basic rhythm sounds like instantly, instead of trying to explain it for five minutes. I wish every drummer would practice with something like this, so they can get in touch with the subtle differences between 133 and 136 bpm. Or see the big difference between a 6/8 ballad at 64 bpm and 60 bpm. Most drummers I know only have about 5 tempos they are good at keeping steady. Let's fix that!
Yes, this metronome costs more than most others out there, but it's worth it. The ability to vary the tempo and rhythms is a key component to player skill development and progression. Not only are the features of this product excellent but so is the quality. I've actually had mine for years now. The one offered here is, seemingly, virtually the same product. Why mess with a great thing? One of the things that's cool about this metronome is turning up the left three knobs (quarters, eights and sixteenths) then increasing the tempo so that the Tama RW Met is actually laying down a perfect open roll. Do that NON-STOP until your arms feel like they're gonna fall off. There is no better metronome on the market for building chops. This is just a cool product that, if taken care of, will last you for many years.
