Korg TM-40 Large Display Digital Tuner and Metronome
Korg tuners and metronomes are acclaimed for their extremely high accuracy and superb features. Korg TM-40 combines these two functions into a single compact easy-to-use unit. A great lesson and practice tool, the TM-40 offers both tuner and metronome functions simultaneously or independently in a handheld unit that you can carry everywhere. Its large LCD-type needle delivers both the accuracy of an LCD and the excellent visibility of a needle indicator. It also has LED indicators that show pitch deviation or blink to indicate the tempo, making the TM-40 a highly visual tool.
The TM-40's Calibration setting is adjustable in a range of 410~480 Hz to accommodate a variety of tuning standards. The calibration can be adjusted in 1 Hz steps, letting you accurately tune to any song or key. Memory backup is also provided so that the Calibration and Sound Out (?12 NOTES? or ?ABb?) settings are remembered even when the power is turned off. When intervals of a third are played out of tune in the context of a brass band, orchestra, or other ensemble, it is particularly noticeable. But those intervals can be made to blend more pleasantly by slightly adjusting them (relative to the equal-tempered pitch) to a pure major or minor third. The TM-40's meter scale provides markings to indicate pitches of a pure major and pure minor third relative to a selected pitch. By tuning your instrument so that the meter's indicator needle points to these markings, you can ensure beautiful harmonies when playing in an ensemble. This capability is very useful not only for wind instruments, but also for vocal or a cappella practice.
The metronome section offers convenient functions for practicing a variety of music. Beat mode - choose from preset patterns. Beat mode lets you choose a preset tempo and time signature, and Tap mode lets you specify your own tempo. It contains a large speaker that produces a clear and distinct metronome s

Review by R. Morris from Bloomington, IN, USA:
The TM-40 is a good deal for the money. I use it to tune my guitars and the kids use the metronome for the piano. It performs well for both tasks. I wouldn't be without one.
Review by N. D. Mar from USA:
I got it for my son who started playing the trumpet.I also got the Korg TM-40. The turner clip and the turner are great, very sensitive and helpful, specially if you just started playing an instrument and you are no sure if you are hitting the right note.
I really like these two products.

Review by Jose Luis Yanez Rojas from Santiago, Chile South America:
No le doy las 5 estrellas solo por que creo que podria ser más rapido el reconocimiento de las notas (Calibrador) y el beep del metronomo podria ser un poco más fuerte... pero aparte de eso una excelente compra.
