clave and rumba clave
A total of 19 beat patterns cover your practicing needs in numerous musical
styles.
Tap Tempo function makes it easy to set the tempo.
An audible Reference tone in a range of C4〜B4 is available, allowing you to
tune your instrument.
An encoder-type TEMPO/CALIB dial and switch provide direct access to the
desired setting or function.
A large LCD screen makes settings easy to see.
Original and compact style.
Long battery life, with approximately 120 hours of continuous use.
This easy-to-use digital metronome accurately marks the tempo visually and with
a powerful sound.
Improved cylindrical resonator
speaker
delivers even clearer and more powerful sound
Korg's acclaimed cylindrical speaker has been further enhanced with an improved
resonator structure to ensure that it's easily heard. Even loud instruments
wont overpower its unmistakable, clear sound. And with the KDM-2 you have a
choice of 3 different PCM sounds (cowbell/agogo/clave) for the beat, so you can
choose the sound that compliments the instrument you're playing. The volume can
also be adjusted to the most appropriate level. Since there's a PHONE jack, you
can connect a mini-plug (1/8") earphone for private practice.
Easy-to-see, large LED
The START/STOP switch located on the top panel blinks in two colors red and
green for an unmistakable visual indication of the tempo. It's a great feature
if you want to practice with a silent metronome.
A variety of beats cover
even sophisticated rhythms
From basic beats to variations like son clave and rumba clave, the KDM-2
contains a total of 19 beat patterns. You can set the tempo in any of three
ways. Full Step mode that lets you adjust the tempo over a range of 30 through
252 in steps of one. Pendulum Step mode lets you set the tempo using the preset
tempo settings, as on a mechanical metronome. And Tap Tempo lets you set the
tempo by pressing the TAP switch at the desired interval.
Use the reference pitches
to tune by ear
Sound Out mode outputs a reference tone that you can use as a tuning guide. You
can listen to any of the twelve pitches from C4 - B4. You can also adjust the A4
frequency (calibration) in a broad range from 410 Hz to 480 Hz.
Memory backup function
The KDM-2 provides a memory backup function that remembers the specified tempo,
beat, calibration, and reference pitch even when the power is turned off.
Designed for stability and
ease of use
The large LCD screen makes it easy to view the settings. An encoder-type TEMPO/CALIB
dial and a Step Select switch provide quick and direct access to settings and
functions. Featuring an original design that's compact yet stable, the KDM-2 is
at home on your desk, your piano, or anywhere else.
Long battery life
The KDM-2 is designed for long battery life. It will continue marking an
accurate tempo for approximately 120 hours of continuous use at a tempo of 120
beats per minute.
