while i'm not even sure if metronomes have a crystal, i'm convinced that if he uses it regularly it won't slow down on him so much.

in other words, i'm one step ahead of you on this one, landru.

As soon as you add another player to the mix, things clash because both of them are slightly out of time.

I notice that whenever I play alone, my timing feels perfect even though I know it's not. As soon as I add the metronome, the metronome tells me that I'm off, sometimes more, sometimes less.
that thought crossed my mind as well. the good news is that they were both able to sync to the metronome.
