tap to the beat and it gives you a bpm it's OK it works thats how i bpm my records i'm just having problems now cause the damn thing is old about 15 yrs now ...... bad design,,,,realy but it helps

it's a bpm couinter you count to the up and down beat and it gives you a reading.

it by vestex's if you find where they sell them let me know i need another one

peace

smoove man i cant remeber the name of the one they used to sell at the record store but i bought one and used it back in the 80's what happen tho the guy who used to put them out got shot after a gig and they didnt put any more out and they were kool cause it was for like top 1ooo records of each yr, then started buyin DMR's dance music report and they had all the top 40 hit's of each month it was a bi weekly mag.

let me try to find the one that i have and i'll post a pic of it . and i'll get you a title you may be able to find back copy's i got mass mags and books of music tho so it may take a while to find.
