Hi Guys, I'm sure that this has been asked a million and one times but I would like to know if anyone can recommend a suitable metronome. I need one for playing classical but would like to get one that can be used for the various flamenco rhythms. I have been reading up on the KORG KDM-2 and it sounds like it might be a good one but I really would like some advice. Cheers, Eddie

Hi if you have the $$$ the oscar herrero is a great metronome. great for all styles... just expensive outlayed the money for one a year back and inhindsight was a great investment otherwise intelli make a great range with good 'natural' sounds/clicks http://www.melbay.com/product.asp?ProductID=ACMFOH here is where i bought mine..a bit cheaper than other sites.... http://ostriemusicsupplies.com/flamenco-metronome.htm

Thanks, Eddie Only 99 euro's for the software only version. The box itselves is really bad, a display from the middle ages, hard to program... I use the software to program it and play it via my stereo or use the metronome itself because its very loud.

other than Jason's software metronome, i would suggest a good old Wittner. They sound good, and they're loud. http://www.metronomes.net/WitStdPl.htm I hate the digital ones that go "beep beep beep".. TK

quote: I hate the digital ones that go "beep beep beep".. so true which is why the intelli's are so good sound like a wittner but can be used on unbalanced surfaces and get over the sound of a good flamenco or lattice braced classical guitar.......

lol[:)] but the rewinds through the alllegro section of 'la cathedral' or an extended solea... [;)] think wittner have gone electronic.. http://www.wittner-gmbh.de/cgi-bin/db_search_e.pl?rubrik=TAKTELL%20ELECTRONIC%20%28Series%20877%29&gruppe=TAKTELL my wittner sits on the mantel these days...lovely to look at...[:D]

Thats hilarious!![:D][:D] You cant buy a mechanical metronome and not check it for calibration. Ive had a few Wittners that ive used for 15 years, and they're perfect. I will make a video. I will make it tomorrow. It will be a video. TK

I see Todd, its just that i have a phobia only because its a mechanical device. I just dont trust these thingies compared to the electrical ones (software metronomes can have runtime errors too if badly programed (unlike jasons)). I actually bought a programmable hardware metronome, and i could also program it to 12 beats or more. But to be honest i didnt use it, i just like the sound of solo compas loops more. Or the sound of my foot [8D]. No, i wont be making any videos soon [;)]
