The Body Beat Sync® represents the ultimate in musical tempo reference devices. As a fully featured metronome, it is capable of transmitting the beat by visual, aural and tactile means. Wireless functionality allows two or more Body Beat Syncs to work in synchronicity with one another, allowing the networking of multiple units on stage, in the recording studio, band room or anywhere the precise synchronization of a performance and its performers is required.

The Body Beat Sync can store up to 100 user presets consisting of tempo, meter, subdivision and accent pattern. All preset information is transmitted to each synchronized unit as well as the current bar count of the active preset. If the 100 user presets do not provide enough versatility, the “tempo map” from an entire musical score can be stored in the Body Beat Sync via the mini USB cable. A standard MIDI file can be used or a custom “tempo map” can be designed via the free application on the Body Beat Sync website.

Additionally, the Body Beat Sync can be driven by a DAW using MIDI Clock via the mini USB cable.

The mini USB connection is not only used to charge the Body Beat Sync, but provides a means for always keeping the unit’s firmware current. You will never need another metronome!

I have only had the Body Beat Sync for one week. I really like the high quality of the unit. The unit comes with a USB cable, A removable clip for the back of the unit and the the cable for the Body Beat capsule. The unit can also be used with the built in speaker and it comes with a headphone jack. The battery is removable and is rechargeable via the included USB cable. This unit has all of the functions you would expect in a high quality metronome. It subdivides beats, it has can play in many different time signatures. And it has the most astonishing range of beats per minute I have ever seen. It plays from 10 beats a minutes up to 280 beats per minute. That is right 10 beats a minute Wow! It will also play beats that are not often found on a metronome it will play 120 BPM but, it will also play 120.2 BPM or 120.8 BPM or any other 10th of a beat. It has a tap feature on the tempo button that feels a little stiff but that might be because it is a new unit. The unit also comes with man ...

I am a drummer and have used this product for about 5 years now. In fact I wore out my first one and am on my second one. My band also loves it because we play all songs at the right tempo now and ended all the "that was too fast" and "that was too slow" nonsense that goes on nonstop when you are just using your own feel for timing, and because they trust this device they trust my speed is correct.I recently joined a well established band whose drummer has moved away and they are amazed by the increase in the number of people dancing to some of the songs that didn't get much dance response when they played them with the last drummer and we all know thats because the tempo is on target now. It is by far the most valuable drumming accessory I own, so much so that I even bought my third unit to have as a backup in case my gig unit malfunctions which we all know eventually will happen to electronics.

Where should I put the vibe clip?

The clip is best placed so that it is close to a bone and making good contact with your body. This way, the pulse will travel through your entire body.

Common places to clip the vibe are:

On your belt line at the small of the back next to your spine, on the back of your collar, on your side next to your hip bone, or on your shoe.

Remember, always place the barrel of the vibe toward your body for the most effective beat transfer.

My Body Beatturns on and shuts off immediately?

If your Body Beat Sync screen comes on when plugged into a USB power supply or the USB jack of a computer and then shuts off immediately, the battery probably needs to be replaced. Peterson Strobe Tuners - Body Beat Sync battery The Body Beat Sync uses a standard BL-4B cell phone-style battery, like the one that is commonly used in Nokia phones. If you would like to purchase a spare battery, you can do so from the Peterson online store or purchase it from a local store or internet supplier.
