Korg KDM-3 Reviews

It jusr works.

Easy to use. Sound is loud and it you can change it to the sound you like best, plus there are blinking lights that keep the tempo on top of the metronome. And it is stylish for a digital metronome. My only beef is that the ON button is small and located on one of the sides near the rear of the metronome. But that is a small complaint. I highly recommend this product.

Very versatile metronome

Has all the bells and whistles in a compact form factor. Seems like good quality.

No; the only connection available on this metronome is 3.5mm audio jack for ear/headphone use
