Problem with finding correct vibration spot on my body
born again old drummer
Hi I am a seventy years old drummer. The problem I have is the older I get my concentration and drive is getting worse. I hate using a click track, and I now have managed to master using tap and flash app on my I pod. The problem with this is, I now play with a 20 piece big band and it is very important for reading music to be spot on. So when I am concentrating watching the flash my reading is a bit dodgy.Then I heard about the Soundbrenner, which is a simple but very clever idea. At first I struggled to find a part of my body that I could use. I even bought your longer strap but that did not help either. So I was ready to forget about the whole thing but I found a spot at the back of my head that felt would work.So I adjusted the strap and put it on my head, and it was the spot I was looking for. The problem with that it made me look like a half boiled sixties hippie. So I got my baseball cap and looped the cap adjustment strap through the brenners strap, put the cap on pressing the brenner firmly to the spot at the back of my headProblem Solved.!!!!!! So I am wondering if there is a cap that you stock that does this. If not just think of the potential it would have with a cap with Soundbrenner on it. Also some drummers like myself, don't like other members of the band to know that they are using any form of metronome, so as long as the flash is off nobody would know.Please reply.

Solid metronome
DanMontague
This metronome app does exactly what it says on the tin. There are quite a lot of cool features for connecting with other apps on your desktop or laptop. They also have a metronome watch that keeps the time for you by vibrating. Basically they have created a really solid and reliable metronome, then have tried to think about how they could make the app better and more useful for musicians. Although I don’t use a lot of the extra things and generally stick to the metronome I think they have done a great job with what they set out to accomplish. Would definitely recommend this to family and friends.

Until they sort out the bug would not recommend buying

It seems to me there are two different groups of people reviewing this app. Those who just use the app as a (very good) free metronome, and those who have, perhaps unwisely, decided to buy the pulse or core vibrating watch. And at this point everything unfortunately turns sour. The pulsating watch is absolutely brilliant when it works, but frequently disconnects from the app on switch on. The only solution is to delete the app, download again and then log in again. Annoying when practicing, disastrous when playing a gig in a cellar with no wi fi and you are in the car park with 5 minutes before you play in the pouring rain trying to download it. Worse, they say they have fixed the bug, but clearly haven’t and contacting their support results in no more help.

Hey, sorry you are having these issues. Please email me more details so we can investigate to florian@soundbrenner.com. I'm happy to take a look. We are not familiar with the bug/problem you're describing. Do you have a Pulse or Core wearable? Why do you think you need to delete the app and re-install it. If you don't do it, what alert/error do you get inside the app? Can you take a screenshot or just let us know what it says? Thank you
More bugs! No! - My fault!
Coffee shots
Me - “Latest version just won’t connect Pulse with Bluetooth! Keeps telling me that Bluetooth is not available! When it is on and working! It used to work fine on my iPhone 6s. Is it the app, the Pulse, or, iOS 13.4? Whatever, it needs fixing quick!Very irritating and disruptive to the creative process. The Pulse is back in it’s box, again! Please fix this! I have been using this app and my Pulse for a long time now and this is not good enough. Updates need more thorough testing before release.”Rose at Soundbrenner - “... Also, please also enable Soundbrenner Bluetooth Access:iPhone Settings --> Scroll down--> Soundbrenner --> Bluetooth -> Make sure it's enabled...” 🤦♂️All that was needed! Despite my obvious stupidity, I use this app every day, not just for instrument practice, and will be using the Pulse itself a lot more, in the future.Sorry for the lousy review.Great app, great product, great support!Thanks, Soundbrenner.
