With its large display, the MA-2 emphasizes perfect readability. The beat is indicated with a pendulum display on the screen and an acoustic signal. A triangle shows the current beat position and the timing in which the beats change. The MA-2 includes a newly developed speaker that delivers more power, allowing it to stand out against loud instruments and high frequencies.
The tempo can be set in three ways: in pendulum steps, like a mechanical metronome, in single steps, and using the Tap Tempo method by simply pressing a button at the desired tempo. Additionally, the time signature can be adjusted very flexibly - choose between 0-9 beats and one of eight rhythm types. This allows even complex passages to be practiced cleanly.
The tilt stand allows for stable and well-visible placement of the device. The battery compartment cover can be slid open and closed, but it is part of the housing and thus cannot be lost.
