TimeMaster Digital Drum Counter

Morley, makers of cool effects for guitar, keyboard and bass players, has entered the drum accessory market with the TimeMaster, a digital drum counter that allows drummers to keep the beat--or find the--at any point during a song.

More than a metronome, the TimeMaster helps both accomplished and beginning drummers improve their craft. Perfect for building confidence, it also solves the age-old argument between lead and rhythm as to who's really on or beat. Here's how:

1) Unlike a metronome, the TimeMaster can help you return to the beat at any time during a song. This is especially after a long fill or solo when you need to quickly reestablish the original tempo.

2) The TimeMaster uses a digital display so you can see the number of beats per minute, allowing you to know at a glance whether you're fast or slow. (A metronome provides an audible click that can be difficult to hear.)

Here's what others say about the TimeMaster:

Legendary drummer Carmine Appice (Vanilla Fudge, Rod Stewart, Jeff Beck and others) thinks the TimeMaster is perfect for live or studio work. "This will keep your time right on" he says.

"The TimeMaster is unequivocally the most comprehensive timing product developed. This easy to use "speedometer" is a must for anyone who wants to achieve perfect time," says Bill Walzak, a drummer and president of distributor Advantage Worldwide.

The TimeMaster, which retails for $199.00 comes with Morley's standard two year warranty.
