A method and apparatus provides metronomes capable of wireless
synchronization with other similar metronomes. A metronome includes a
tactile device capable of conveying the tempo and beat to a user without
the use of sound. In one example, one of the metronomes is used as a lead
unit (for example, controlled by a band leader or conductor) and
transmits control signals to the other metronomes. This allows multiple
musicians in an orchestra, or similar music ensemble, to each have a
metronome that is synchronized with other metronomes and shares a common
tempo and beat.
