Styled in a limited edition, wood and black finish, the Korg KDM-3 is a digital metronome with a natural pyinkado wood front panel and a classic look that resembles a miniature mechanical metronome. Great to help improve your rhythm and make your instrument practice consistent, it features eight metronome sounds (including cowbell, rim-shot, voice, and a mechanical metronome sound) and a sealed speaker enclosure, which delivers a clear tone easily heard over high-volume instruments.
The KDM-3 offers 19 built-in beat patterns with 0 to 9 beats per measure and a choice of duplets, triplets, triplets omitting the middle note, quadruplets, and more. The tempo can be specified in the range of 30 to 252 BPM to accommodate a wide variety of musical genres.
Packed with convenient features, the KDM-3 offers one-touch operation with a blinking Start/Stop button that provides a clear visual indication of the tempo, and an easily readable, large display that shows the settings at a glance. The Sound Out mode lets you tune your instrument while listening to a reference tone, while the Timer mode allows for the metronome to operate for a specified length of time and then automatically stop.
Use the unit s Memory Backup function to preserve the specified tempo, beat, calibration, and reference tone, even when the power is turned off. The KDM-3 operates up to 120 hours on four fresh AAA batteries.
