I sent this to my horn student, thanks for making it! Also, I'm learning alto sax right now and I subscribed because your way of explaining things makes sense to me.
Hi. I don't play the chromatic harmonica but on the RUclips channel masters of the harmonica there is a video talking about tuning and he is using a Korg tuner with a chromatic harmonica, so I think it should be ok especially since you can change the setting to 440hz or whatever the harmonica is tuned to. The video I watched was called 442 a bit about tuning and tuners the david kettlewell chromatic harmonica. Maybe check out the video. Thanks.
Hi. Tuner and metronome apps on mobiles are good with many special features but I got this one because I can connect the mic to the bell of my sax. Not sure how good it would be for a guitar though.
@@Saxcomprehensive Ahhh ok.. actually I was thinking if there was any brand that sells a metronome and tuner that doesn't need external battery and can be use charging it just like a bluetooth speaker, I don't want to use my phone for metronome because it consumes battery and wanted to have a separate device for practice
You could always buy rechargeable batteries. That’s what I use for my guitar tuner pedal. I always keep one battery on a charger and swap them out between practice and lessons.
Good tuto. Seems to be a good device but what I don't like at all here again is the crappy buzzer TONAL sound. I'd love to find a compact quite cheap electronic metronome-tuner that'd make a real white/blanck sound, like "tac", knock on wood.. Like my real mecanic metronome.
Thanks for the video! Wondering if you know of any differences between this and the TM-60SV model. That one's out of stock, so I was considering just getting this instead. Also, this would be for euphonium, flute, and trumpet.
Hi. Thanks for the question. In my opinion, the only difference is the colour. Sv for silver. Originally it came in black and white, then red, and now limited edition of silver. I could not find any information on any difference. It might be best to call the company. The only thing I will say is that you will need to think about whether you want to also buy the contact mic as it does not usually come with the product. I bought mine from amazon and it had the option to include it. I found to contact mic valuable since there is always background noise when I practice which will interfere with the tuner without it. Lastly, the sound is low and you may need to connect it to a speaker. Check out the reviews on amazon. Most of the time when practicing at home I use a free metronome on my pc connected to my tv so the sound comes through the tv speakers. But it has some good features. Also it does not transpose for your instrument so you may need to use it with a transposition chart. Thanks.
@@zxKAOS1 Hi. When using the tuner with a piano, when you press the c key, c will show on the tuner. However, if you use the tuner with a transposing instrument it will show the actual note coming out of the instrument. So when I play c on my alto sax, the tuner will read eb and not the note I am fingering. So when checking the notes I play on my sax I have to work out what is the actual note sounding. There are some tuners that by pressing a button the tuner will transpose what it is showing, so if I set it to alto sax, then when I play c it will show c even though the actual sound is eb. I only mention this because I believe a trumpet is a transposing instrument and the tuner will show the actual notes rather than the the notes fingered. Thanks
Hi. This does not have a transpose feature. I use it with my saxophone which is a transposing instrument and so I use a transposing chart along with it when I use it. It only shows concert pitch. Thanks
Hi. I just had a quick read through the manual and it says that if you use the tuner and metronome at the same time, then you cannot get the triplets or quads beats. Try it with just the metronome alone on and see if you can get the triplets. You should be able to get it with only the metronome turned on. If not, try changing the batteries, or taking the batteries out and putting them back in again. I hope this helps. Thanks
Hi. When playing the pitch generator it can only play beats 0-9 and the 8th notes on the metronome. So no triplets or 16th notes combinations, which means it does not play 4 of the beat settings in the metronome. Hope that helps
Hi. The only thing you can hear through the headphones output is the clicking of the metronome. The microphone is used for capturing the frequency of the sound for the tuner and is not heard in the headphones. If you are playing an instrument like a saxophone then the bell clip works better than the mic but may is sold separately. Thanks.
Hi. In my opinion there are so many good apps out there for the mobile and pc that it doesn't seem necessary to buy such a product. Originally, I bought one to help with playing long tones on the saxophone. The contact microphone is more accurate and helps to reduce other sounds interfering with the readings. However, to be honest, I mainly use the metronome on my laptop and occasionally use this product when tuning the saxophone. If you are going to buy this product, you could always buy the contact mic later. But I do feel that the contact mic is worth having if you are going to spend a lot of time working on your tone. It is not so needed if you don't play a woodwind instrument. Thanks.
thank you for explaining how the metronome changes the number of beats. You fixed it for me!
Fantastic review, very helpful.
Thank you for your time making this and posting it to the public.
All the best to you mate.
Thanks for watching. It's a good product but there have been times when I wanted a more complex time signature which it didn't have.

Excellent overview, very thorough.
Thanks for sharing, very interesting video
Thanks. That was very helpful.
Thanks, just ordered one, very helpful
Thanks for the comment. I'm glad the video was helpful.
Brilliant explanation. Thank you.
Superb tutorial, thank you very much.
I've actually ended up buying this device for use with my stringed instruments. Your video is a much better showcase of the device than Korg's own.
Very good review, good information, thank you.
Great review. Thanks man.
Very useful. Cheers
Thanks
Hi good video clearly explained but I would like to know if this TM 60 can be used for a chromatic harmonica. Greetings Johan

@@Saxcomprehensive Hi thanks for the info I'm going to watch the video.
Mine stopped turning on!!! I put new batteries and everything! How do I fix????
Has there been any tuner & metronome released without having to use a battery and can be used charging it ?

@@Saxcomprehensive thx for the reply! For the transposition part, this is only for sax, or you mean the notation is just for that?

Does this have a transpose feature e.g. for French Horn.
Hi. This does not have a transpose feature. I use it with my saxophone which is a transposing instrument and so I use a transposing chart along with it when I use it. It only shows concert pitch. Thanks
@@Saxcomprehensive I play Horn but I think I can use this since it would be for tuning a note at any given time. Thanks.
When I try to cycle through to the triplets it won’t give them to me. It will only give me the option of 8th notes. Do you know how I could fix that?
Hi. I just had a quick read through the manual and it says that if you use the tuner and metronome at the same time, then you cannot get the triplets or quads beats.

@@Saxcomprehensive thank you so much I’ll try it now. I need the specific setting to practice for my Texas junior state honor band audition
Hi! Can it runs pitch generator feature and metronome at the same time?
Thanks

Can you hear the microphone trough the phones out?

If you are playing an instrument like a saxophone then the bell clip works better than the mic but may is sold separately. Thanks.
@@Saxcomprehensive thank you, im tuning my synths with it, that's all line out, I was thinking that i I ruind the mic input of the tm60
Anyone know why my TM60 tuner would be accurate in the midrange but off in the high and low notes?
Do you think it is worth buying the tuner together with the contact microphone or do you think it is not necessary?
Hi. In my opinion there are so many good apps out there for the mobile and pc that it doesn't seem necessary to buy such a product.

nice.... I found it for 20$.
pretty good deal
