Korg Beatlab Mini Metronome & Rhythm Trainer - Practising rhythm using a metronome is essential for any musician, especially for drummers and percussionists. In the past, rhythm practice was painfully boring, consisting simply of hitting a practice pad in time with a metronome. Additionally, since you only have a subjective judgement of whether your rhythm is correct or not, many musicians find it hard to stay motivated to practice.
This is where the BEATLAB mini comes in; it is a training tool that allows you to practice rhythm more accurately and enjoyably. Along with a versatile metronome function, which includes a wide range of sounds, including human voice and real drum sounds, this unit offers a training function that detects and evaluates the discrepancy between the metronome and the notes you play. This means you can develop a perfect sense of rhythm using rhythm training as if you were playing a game.
