Tuners and metronomes

A metronome is a device that produces a specified number of sounds at a specified time interval. In other words, the metronome is capable of counting the desired beats. Helps to "keep" the given rhythm, both for a group of musicians and a performer playing alone. Who was the first to use the metronome in music is not known for certain. However, there is an opinion that the great composer Ludwig van Beethoven was one of the first to use this device. When a famous musician was completely deaf, he set the time signature with the swings of a pendulum. At that time, the metronome was a pyramidal body, usually made of wood. On the front side there was a bar on which a weight was strung. The metronome counts a different measure depending on the height of the weight. The lower the load was dropped, the faster the pendulum moved and the higher the tempo. And vice versa - the higher the weight was, the lower the tempo rate was set by the mechanical device. Such metronomes have survived to this day and still exist today. Mechanical devices are very popular among lovers of antiquity, adherents of tradition, as well as classical musicians. At the same time, modern musicians prefer to use electronic devices. They are smaller, more compact and more mobile. As a rule, their size is commensurate with the size of a modern smartphone. Moreover, the advantage of such a device is the presence of a tuner, which is important for a guitarist. That is, the musician gets two in one.
