WEARABLE AND REPOSITIONABLE VIBRATING METRONOME

摘要

A metronome for use by one or more musicians generally includes a signal generator for producing electrical signals according to desired timing schemes and one or more tactile transducers in wireless communication with the signal generator. Each tactile tranducer is designed to be worn by a musician and is contained within a wearable housing that does not include the power supply powering the transducer. The signal generator, which is under the centralized control of a conductor, bandleader, lead musician or music instructor, can output electrical signals corresponding to a plurality of independent timing schemes on multiple, independent communication channels, and is further adapted to produce outputs having predetermined time shifts therebetween.
