“While it mostly works, and a good concept, it's not been a great experience to be honest, lots of annoyances.
- install walkthrough tells me to enable special battery permissions on my phone. I do this, and then my phone's battery doesn't last the day. I disabled it, and everything seems to still work ok. It's not clear what the benefit of allowing this mode is and the downsides are prohibitive.
- double tap to start metronome rarely works, although the tap tempo does. This is the single biggest frustration. I don't want to get my phone out every time I want to use it.
- if you move away from your phone for too long, it doesn't always reconnect. I had to power cycle the Core to get it to find my phone again.
- When receiving a call, if I answer the call on my phone, the Core carries on vibrating, requiring me to press the button to stop, which is awkward as I'm using my phone in one hand now.
- the strap is not very comfortable, quite sweaty
- no integration with my phone's alarms, which is very disappointing.”
“I have used the app for 9 months prior to getting the Core. I like the interconnection between the Core and my phone. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a metronome to practice. I can not attest to how it works in a group or gig setting.”
“The Soundbrenner Core has changed the way I practice music. Being able to customize the metronome on the fly and not needing to put the guitar down. The Link feature is also fantastic for music producing. I love you guys!! Continue to amaze!”
“A great product ! what I found interesting is the feeling of pulsation from the body, myself from the wrist. It's totally a new way of working by developing the proprioception part, the overall feeling is the enhancement of my fingers precision (I'm a pianist). This product might help children too in developing their weak senses like mine which is on the spectra.”
“Great solution! Works 100% as a very good and practical metronome and dB Meter. Probably also as Tuner, but one does already use pedals for that... :)
One thing that I guess could be skipped since it is more annoying then functional: the "SMART" watch part with messages. Unpractical handling, not to intuitive, and who wants to be disturbed by practice anyway. :) It is (with todays software) too complicated to be used. Has to pimp it real good in order to use it as selling point, at least.
Other than that: Proud owner!

“I had excellent customer service and I really enjoy the product. I wish the watch had more "smartwatch" features though. I wish you were able to set alarms on the watch. I am also noticing some of the paint is peeling on the metal watch buckle. But overall I am very pleased with my purchase”
