 Tuner Right on Pitch November 5, 2006
5 out of 5 found this review helpful
The Korg TM40 tuner metronome combination is a precision instrument. It is sensitive enough so that it can register my pitch in the wind section even when the full orchestra is playing. The metonome can be set so that the first beat in any tempo (e.g., 3/4, 4/4) is accented (or not). Stable on a music stand. Just wish it came with a protective case.
Excellent tuner, picks up very low notes, even at lower dynamics. November 4, 2006

I am a professional tuba player, and have difficulty finding tuners that will tune my pedal register (lowest notes for a tubist). This tuner tunes all the way down to my pedal F (major 3rd below lowest "A" on piano). It has far exceeded my expectations.
Its also handy having the metronome, which incidentally does not affect the tuner's ability to listen. Usually when you have both going, the tuner will "bump" for every beep of the metronome, this but metronome does not affect the tuner at all.
This metronome/tuner is very handy for long tones throughout the entire range of my instrument. An added bonus is the feature that allows you to tap a beat, and it tells you how fast your tempo is. I have only seen this feature on very expensive metronomes, such as Dr. Beat.
You can't beat the price either.
 Tuner unable to identify pitch October 6, 2006

This Korg TM-40 tuner/metronome combo is a great concept, but its execution may be flawed.
This tuner can't consistently identify the high E on my classical guitar, sometimes showing A instead. Tried with the piano with the same result. Sometimes successive notes would be identified incorrectly (e.g. E-D-C were identified as A-G-F).
The problem seems to be more acute with pitches in a certain range, e.g. notes around A-440. It would show a pitch a 4th or 5th away from the actual note played.
Maybe the tuner I received is faulty. I e-mailed Instrument Store six days ago to request for an RMA, but have not heard back. Buyers beware.

This tuner metronome has great quality for a wonderful price! I especially like the fact that you can use the tuner and metronome simultaneously as well as separately. The tuner is great, but I haven't used it in a noisy environment yet, and it is quite sensitive. The metronome has a good sound, but it's not as loud as I expected it to be. I play the flute, and I can hear it fairly well over my playing when it is set to the highest volume. The metronome can be set to move by normal metronome increments (108, 112, 116, 120...132, etc.) or by single steps. It also has great subdividing options. I love the tap in button which you can use to get the tempo from something you are listening to by tapping the button to the tempo as you hear it. Overall, the display screen is great, and the small size is really nice. It fits nicely even on a wire folding stand, but it has its own stand that works great for setting it on a table as well. It's just what I was looking for.
