I have been using the Soundbrenner Metronome App for upwards of 4 years now, it's been amazing. So of course when I saw they made a "smart watch" version of the pulse, I was sold. This bit is on me for not researching more about it, but the "smart watch" functions are severely limited. It feels more like a digital watch (i.e. the entire face of the watch is NOT a screen, there are only two thin strips that show the time and notifications). This is where I was a bit disappointed, I guess I was expecting more smartwatch functionality. The soundbrenner logo is permanently fixed to the center of the screen, another thing that I should have looked up prior to purchasing, as I thought this was a watch background and not a fixed, static logo in the middle of the watch. My biggest complaint comes from how fast this watch/app eats through my battery. Honestly, all the other little things I could live with. But when my watch is connected, it literally eats through a full battery in 3 to 4 hours. And that's with me not even using the app or the watch. It's just sitting there draining my battery. It's so bad that I don't even wear the watch after the first week I got it, which is very disappointing. If you're planning on getting this watch for the music side, stick with the pulse. The core steel is a great idea, but poorly executed.

First, the delivery was very fast, so thanks for that. The soundbrenner Core Steel is an amazing watch for musicians, really met my expectations.

First impressions.... Solid, stylish, great functions. Challenges were getting the core off the band, the instructions and reference videos make it look super simple, but really not. Maybe after it breaks in a bit. The display was upside down, eventually had to factory reset to resolve.

The watch is very nice, very stylish. Nice quality. Im still not used to the vibrating metronome. Guess I need more practice with it. But Im happy with my purchase.

I am just starting out with guitar but I find the Soundbrenner Core Steel such an amazing tool. It makes practice fun, keeps me consistent, and helps me to just relax and enjoy time with my guitar. I love it because it is small and doesn't clutter up the house and is so portable for anywhere I go. The receiving of notifications from my iPhone is cool but I love the Soundbrenner for the metronome feature. I look forward to performing for family without them even being aware I am using the Core to keep me on track. I find it effective and convenient to wear on my forearm with the shorter fabric strap. It slides on easily, is easily seen and reached.

this watch is very convenient for the everyday musician with how whenever the metronome vibrates it almost forces you to pick the guitar strings it's also a very good feature that it will display notifications from your phone even if they are not relevant to guitar
