The Korg MA30 Metronome
The Korg MA-30 digital metronome is a handy little tool to have around. We’ve done a little review of the effective metronome to help you understand a little more about it. It’s not expensive yet it has a lot of bang for the buck when it comes to electronic metronomes. Not only is it sleek and compact but the features include everything you need in such a device.
First of all, there are 13 different rhythms built in, so you can practice a lot more than with most electronic metronomes. These rhythms include duplets, triplets, quadruplets, and both triplets and quadruplets with the inner beats omitted. Additionally, there are 12 reference pitches (ranging from C4 to B4) which make it easier to tune your instrument, especially on the go.
If the variety of rhythm and pitches isn’t enough for you, there’s more to the Korg MA 30. In addition to the audible click, you also get a highly visual liquid crystal pendulum so that you have a visual tempo reference. This is great for those just getting into music. Furthermore, the Korg MA has adjustable calibration (from 438-445 Hz).
As a musician you are probably already aware that the Korg line of tuners and metronomes is truly innovative, but you haven’t seen anything till you’ve experienced the Korg MA 30! This little electronic metronome is packed with awesome features, allows for volume control, and is extremely power efficient. (You get up to 250 hours of continual use with just two AAA batteries.)
This ultra portable electronic metronome fits easily in your pocket, or can slide into almost any instrument case pouch, and is well worth a try. The Korg MA 30 metronome is truly a musical tuning ingenuity!
