 At a recent show, there was a problem with the monitors leaving the rest of the band unable to hear the beat. \\ At a recent show, there was a problem with the monitors leaving the rest of the band unable to hear the beat. \\
 We normally use a click track but it was not possible at this show. This lead me to come up with this design for a visual metronome so the others know where we are in the bar.  We normally use a click track but it was not possible at this show.

 Here are some pictures of the master unit that I have built. The board is a home made version of the pic core along with a custom DOUTx2 DINx1 board. I had intended to separate the 2 boards but the whole panel fitted in the case so left them as one. I left several components out of the core part, only the parts required for this project are fitted. The unit is powered by a 5volt SMPS. Here are some pictures of the master unit that I have built.
