The Body Beat Metronome The BodyBeat® offers a new approach on typical metronome use. The BodyBeat metronome produces a pulsing vibration allowing musicians to easily internalize the beat. The BodyBeat clips onto the belt line and a small separate “vibe clip” transmits the beat, in the form of a pulse (including subdivisions and accents) directly to the user. Research has shown that separate neural pathways to the brain exist for tactile impulses and visible/audible information which is why musicians find that tactile pulses are quickly internalized, allowing them to concentrate on reading and listening to the music without the constant distraction of an audio or visual metronome. Feeling the beat, not having to listen to clicks or look at blinking LEDs makes it much easier to focus on the music and playing in correct time.

I am a violin teacher, and one of my students left this device in my studio after his lesson. I'd never seen it before (he brought it to show me). Between that Monday and the next, I found myself using it spontaneously in lesson after lesson. The results were consistent:
(1) Every student's rhythm improved dramatically and immediately
(2) Even students who typically struggled to play with a metronome, played accurately with the Body Beat
(3) Every student LOVED it, and ALL of them asked me where they could get one.
How many times has a student ever ASKED for a metronome? One female student begged to use it over the weekend, and was willing to drive it across town on Sunday so I had it in time for the owner's next lesson the next day.
As a traditional metronome (with sound) the Body Beat is limited, because the "click" is actually a pitch rather than a wood-block sound. In a situation with several players, only one player would be able to clip the vibrator to them, so you would need a traditional metronome with a loud beat for that purpose; the Body Beat would be too soft. (Clapping hands works works just fine for the few times I'm in those teaching situations; so no great loss, but a valuable improvement for the next model.)
The metric settings (ONE-two-three, ONE-two-three-four, etc.) are great for helping students get oriented to strong beat / weak beat. I haven't used the complex rhythm features, but it's a great option ... there are triplets, dotted rhythms, etc. In spite of the advanced features, the interface is quite simple and easy to use.
I am thrilled with the product and am recommending it to all my students.
