Soundbrenner Pulse
Last but not least, here's a new approach to staying in sync, from German
firm Soundbrenner. The Pulse is a wearable haptic metronome; in other
words, you strap it on, and it
pulses against your skin to
help you keep time.
The Pulse itself is a
2" plastic disc that
connects to a magnetic
charging pad. It comes
with a small band for use
on the wrist and a large
band for use on the upper
arm or ankle; an optional
chest strap lets you wear it
over your heart. The front
face is touch-sensitive and
surrounded by a rotating
backlit bezel that acts as
a tempo controller and
song selector.
While you could
use the Pulse
on its own, the
Soundbrenner Metronome app for iOS
and Android is where all the fun is. You
can create Songs that store a particular
pattern of stronger and weaker beats
(think accents on a drum machine),
with or without colored flashes for a
visual cue and/or metronome sounds
from the app itself. Songs can be set up
in Setlists, which you can dial through
from the Pulse without touching the
app. Odd meters, pulses in tuplets or
double or quadruple time... it's all here
and all accessible.
Does it work? Heck, yes, it works!
Playing to a haptic pulse isn't the same
as playing to a click, but it's a learnable
skill. The Pulse makes a lot less noise
than a click, even in its bone-rattling Ludicrous Mode, and I found it easy to follow even in a complex arrangement. Its
ability to sync to your DAW via MIDI or
Ableton Link is icing on the cake; up to
5 Pulses can sync on their own, and an
infinite number can on a Link network,
with any unit controlling tempo with a
tap or twist.
Soundbrenner's new Core smartwatch
will feature all of the Pulse's capabilities
and more, but if you want a convenient,
tracking-friendly way to do everything
from staying on time to controlling tempo from behind the drums, you need to
check out the Pulse.-MM
