FAD GADGETS
Rhodri Marsden on three of the latest must-have gizmos currently putting the prog in progress.
SOUNDBRENNER CORE 2
The original Core, billed as the ultimate wearable for musicians, launched back in 2019, but it’s been smartly upgraded for this bright new post-pandemic era. Yes, it’s a watch, but also a metronome, a tuner, and a decibel meter. There’s an accompanying app for your smartphone, which can help with practice sessions and nailing those tricky passages. Set goals! Compare your progress to other users! Track the inevitable passing of time! Not everyone would want something buckled to their wrist which encourages them to knuckle down, but as a diligent kind of chap, I welcome it.
