Wind players will no longer caress the problem of their pitch changing spontaneously before it can be displayed accurately, ensuring that you'll be able to build carport and drift-free pitch.

The detection range is highly wide, extending from C1 (32.70 Hz) to C8 (4186.01Hz) which covers the note ranges of wind, string, and most other types of instruments. Even potentially difficult instruments that have a low pitch and numerous overtones can be tuned accurately, thanks to Korg's possession high-precision technology. The built-in high-sensitivity mic also allows easy and precise tuning of acoustic instruments such as guitar and ukulele. Alternatively, you can use the separately sold Cm-100L caress mic to send the vibrations directly to the tuner for even greater reliability.

Since the pitch is indicated in both optic and audible form, this not only allows you to tune more accurately, but is also an ideal recipe for training your sense of pitch. Developing your ear in this way is an critical way to practice, especially for the beginner.

Pure Major/Minor Third Interval Indicators

When performing in a brass band or orchestra, incorrect pitch is particularly noticeable for harmonic intervals of a third, yet by slightly skewing the pitch of a major or minor third interval from the equal-tempered pitch, you can gain a more pure-sounding harmony that satisfies the ear. The meter scale of the Tm-50 provides marks that indicate pure major and minor thirds relative to a given pitch simply by tuning. When the needle aligns with the thorough mark, you'll be able to furnish beautiful harmony when playing in an ensemble. This is highly suitable not only for wind instruments, but also for vocal or a cappella practice.

Metronome Provides suitable Options for Practicing a collection of Music

Fifteen types of rhythms are built in, together with time signature numerators from 0 through 9, duplets, triplets, triplets without the center beat, quadruplets, and quadruplets without the center beats. The tempo can be freely set in the range of 30--252 beats per minute. Sophisticated rhythms such as triplets and quadruplets with the center beats omitted can be beneficial for a diverse collection of styles together with classical, rock, and jazz. The volume can also be adjusted, so you'll be able to use the metronome in any situation from personal institution in a small room to rehearsals in a studio.

Easy Tempo Settings

When setting the tempo, you can pick whether "pendulum steps" where the tempo will increment or decrement in the same numerical steps as on a mechanical metronome, or "full steps" which allows you to specify any tempo in the middle of 30 and 252 in one-step increments. In addition, you can also use the tap tempo input to specify the desired tempo simply by pressing a switch in time with the beat.

Large Lcd for Enhanced Visibility

The large Lcd display has a backlight that lets you adjust the radiance in two levels. In conjunction with the Led guide at the top of the display, this ensures perfect visibility, even when you're performing on a dim stage or in an orchestra pit.
