Seiko SQ70 Quartz Metronome Metronome Review

Nice looks and ergonomics. Has a nice big transparent dial to adjust the tempo. Beware that some cheap metronomes have a fake dial and instead use push buttons to adjust the tempo. A real dial is so much nicer to use. Note that you must push the 'on' button down for about one full second to turn the unit on. Probably to prevent it from accidentally turning on if the 'on' button bumps against something. On a fresh battery, its volume can be turned up quite loud. Has a headphone output.

The clicks have two tones to choose from, one higher one lower, but if you set the Beat button to 1, you actually have four tones to choose from. The Beat button allows you to highlight every second, third, fourth, fifth, or sixth beat, by playing it at a higher pitch (a 'bing' sound). But this highlighted beat is actually a bit quieter than the non-accented ones; if anything, it should be a bit louder. This metro also produces a sine wave tone in A (440Hz) for tuning instruments by ear.

This metro seems to go through batteries a bit more quickly than most other metros. It uses one 9V. I bought a rechargeable 9V NiMH battery (it's really only 7.2V) and charger for this and it's perfect. You can also use a proper adapter if you don't mind plugging it in.

Also, about the green light at the top that arcs left and right in time with the beat; trailing behind the main (leading) light are two slightly dimmer lights ...looks a bit like a 'comet' effect. The two trailing lights are not a whole lot dimmer than the the leader, so especially at faster tempos, it can be a bit difficult to discern the exact position of the light relative to the beat. This is only an issue if you want to use the lights as a visual cue to the beat.

Nowadays you can get metros with much more complex beat patterns for less money, but if you only need a simple but good metro, this one might be worth its somewhat high price.
