For anyone seeking an effective, well made metronome, the Wittner Taktell Piccolo metronome is a prime specimen. This metronome was made in Germany and really is #1 when it comes to audible timing available in such devices. It couldn’t get any more accurate. Additionally, this metronome features a sliding counterweight that makes it conveniently adjustable.
Weighing in at just 6.4 ounces and small enough to travel quite easily (it stands 5 ½ inches tall), this Wittner metronome packs quite a punch when it comes to music timing. One of its prime features is the mechanical yet compact pendulum that also allows for visual sensing of tempo. Furthermore, the metronome is compact and offers a full tempo range from 40 to 208 beats per minute. Musicians that like a little variety will be pleased to learn that it comes in ruby, black, blue, ivory, and dark brown.
The Taktell Piccolo metronome is housed in a plastic case that’s a lot more durable than you might think. That just adds to the ease of traveling with it. This tough little metronome’s performance is extremely precise and equals that of a full-size metronome. The strong, reliable wind-up mechanism is essential to its durability and versatility. And for such a small device, the sound is absolutely loud enough to be used with even the loudest of instruments.
Musicians feeling wary of the Wittner metronome shouldn’t. The metronome is backed by a 1-year warranty. Oh, and did we mention the versatility? The plastic case can snap on and off for easier traveling and extra keys as well as weights are available. Affordable, effective, and efficient are all words that can be used to describe the Wittner Taktell Piccolo metronome – it’s the only one you’ll need.
