ABSTRACT:
Apparatus to be used in conjunction with the practicing of a musical instrument is described. The circuit contains and interconnects an electronic metronome, a timer, a tape recorder, a tone generator, earphones, and the electronics for integrating these elements, as well as an internal power supply. This apparatus is particularly well suited to the needs of the advanced student who plays well and desires to progress to the professional level since the interaction of the elements forces the student to play the instrument with speed and accuracy while under time pressure. The combination of elements also leads to a flexibility of functions. Finally, all elements are implemented from electronic components, resulting in a small, low cost, reliable system.
