You hear a lot about drones these days, but not in this context :-)

I have been learning the Huusi lately and it has 2 built in drones that can be switched on and off.

Thanks for posting these. the one on iterleving learning makes a lot of sense. You get bored just doing the same thing over and over, whether it is math or music. It reminds me of what one of the instructed Gary Marcus writes about in "Guitar Zero" whose favorite phrase was "It is better to review than to learn new" Going back and reinforcing the basics along with learning new material is a very powerful method.
