The app allows the vibration strength to be adjusted among three levels. I would happily pay twice as much for a device that shows me its (highly accurate) speed. Suddenly it’s not as convenient or intuitive as was promised by the concept. To control speed precisely, I need to use both this device and a phone or tablet app. ![]() Right now, I find it useful but it falls down in a few areas, many of which have been discussed in other reviews. This is a great concept and will probably eventually be exactly what everybody needs. Where’s the chest strap as seen in the app? Where’s the thigh strap that John Robinson is using in the promotional video? On the app there is a picture of someone with the unit on a chest strap, that would be ideal however the unit comes with a wrist strap and a slightly bigger wrist strap? The bigger strap perhaps may go round your bicep or ankle, but that’s it. I’m a drummer, so my legs and arms are constantly moving. The instructions say place it on a part of the body that is not moving. It’s a shame because it has potential (I for one find the vibration just fine for keeping time to).My other gripe are the straps it comes with. It’s little more than a toy for the curious at best. Fortunately when I reinstalled all the tunes were there at the correct tempo.This is marketed as a professional tool, however to be that it has to be reliable and short term use has shown me it is anything but reliable. I was horrified at the thought of having to re program 70 tunes back into the app but fortunately when I got home I uninstalled the app (nothing else I could do because it was now unusable) and reinstalled. ![]() I’ve been using the app without the Soundbrenner Pulse for sometime without problems however after buying the Soundbrenner Pulse, at the first rehearsal the app had set all the songs to start at 120bpm, and when I tried loading a song into the app the app just crashed. I use this with a big band for setting the tempos and we have probably in the region of 70 tunes in the pad all of which are preprogrammed in the app. It wouldn’t respond to my touch or to the app so I couldn’t turn it off and had to wait for the battery to run down so that I could recharge it and reboot it to get it working again. Yesterday the unit became “frozen” (the outer ring was lit as was the inner logo). As mentioned in other reviews, the unit is sometimes “erratic” (doesn’t give a constant pulse). There is not just one recurring problem, but one problem after another. I’ve only had it a few weeks and there’s just a catalogue of trouble. I really wanted to like this but it is just too poorly made, especially for the price. ![]() In summary, the Soundbrenner Pulse Wearable Metronome is a highly valuable tool for musicians of all levels, allowing for precise timing and better overall musical performance.
