Boss DB30 Dr. Beat Metronome

The Boss DB-30 Dr. Beat is the little metronome that could—compact, clever, and packed with more rhythmic precision than most players ever expect from something that fits in a gig bag pocket. Whether you’re a budding beginner or a seasoned session pro, this tidy tempo companion helps tighten your timing and elevate your groove without fuss.

Despite its small footprint, the DB-30 is loaded with features that make it far more than a basic click box. You get a wide tempo range of 30 to 250 BPM, with 24 different beat variations—from straight counts to complex groupings like 5+2 or 3+3+2, perfect for tackling odd time signatures or polyrhythms. Nine built-in rhythm patterns cover everything from straight quarters to triplets, dotted notes, and clave rhythms, giving you everything you need to rehearse with feel and precision.

It also features a tap tempo function, letting you lock in your pulse by simply tapping it in—ideal when trying to match tempo by ear. Visually, the DB-30 shines with a large LCD display and dual LED tempo lights, which help you keep track even in low-light rehearsal spaces or noisy gig environments.

Want to practice silently? A headphone output lets you keep things private, while the built-in reference tones (spanning a chromatic octave) help tune up in a pinch. Add in auto power-off, long battery life from a single lithium coin cell, and a pocket-sized, tough-as-nails chassis, and it’s clear: the DB-30 is a studio, stage, and classroom essential.

From classical rehearsals to metal breakdowns, the Boss DB-30 Dr. Beat is a reliable rhythm trainer that’s been trusted by players of all stripes. It’s the secret weapon for building rock-solid time—small in size, massive in value.
