 Awesome : Value for Money Mar 10, 2010
My Son uses for his piano lessons and practice and never heard any complain from him or his instructor...
Very compact unit and easy to use button.
 I like it and it works... Metronome is a beep though Mar 01, 2010
I'm new to guitar and have been told to get a metronome that clicks and not one with a beep. So far, it is not annoying me like was suggested. The tuner is great and picks up sound well. I am satisfied with it :)
 Korg TM-40 Tuner & Metronome Feb 17, 2010
The metronome is not clear. It is hard to enter because the buttons are too close together. It takes me a couple of tries to get what I want to come on. If I had a chance to preview this item before I purchased it, I probably would have passed on this one.

Perfect! Feb 16, 2010
This metronome/tuner is perfect for guitar. I have only tuned by plugging in my electric guitar. It was very responsive. by this I mean that you dont have to turn the knob, then wait a moment for the screen to catch up. The tuner seems very accurate. I tuned my guitar with this tuner, used my 1/4" to USB converter and plugged it into my MacBook Pro. It was very close on every string, but I have never been too sure about the quality of the Garage Band tuner. The Garage Band tuner flitters back and forth from tuned to low or high, yet the needle on the Korg is very steady. This makes it much easier to get it perfect by the tuner. I would like to believe that the Korg is more accurate than my computer, but I guess I have nothing to base that on. If it isn't, it at least it's way easier to use. Plug it in, turn it on, end of story. It detects if something is plugged in and uses it instead of the microphone automagically. The deal where you tune it to the pitch it plays kind of has an annoying sound. I am not good with tuning that way, so I don't use it. Plus, why would you use it if you have a real tuner in your same hand.
The only complaint I have, is I wish you could tell it which string you want to tune, instead of only having it tell you what note is being played.
The metronome is also very good. It has more features than I knew a metronome could have, but I know nothing about metronomes. I love the feature where you tap the button twice and it automagicaly metronomes at the rate you hit the button. They should use this same technology in windshield wiper blades. I have wished this for a long time, even before I got this tuner. Just saying. The thing beeps instead of clicks. If you really want clicks, don't get this. Its NBD for me.
Both parts can be used at the same time. Never used both at the same time, but it's good to know.
The buttons and features of this thing are not completely obvious. Just read the page it gives you. As us nerds say, RTFM.

A great buy! Feb 06, 2010
This metronome/tuner is perfect for anyone looking for a great quality tuner for a good price. It shipped quickly and came in perfect condition, and I was able to take it right out of the box and use it immediately. Being a brass player, it's nice to have something like this to help you tune your instrument as best as you can. And with the metronome included with it, I can practice music with a great assortment of time signatures, and even sub-divide parts into either and sixteenth notes. Overall, This is a great product that I would recommend to anybody looking for a tuner/metronome.
