What is the Korg CM400 Contact Microphone used for?

The Korg CM400 is designed to help you tune instruments accurately, especially in noisy environments. It clips directly onto your instrument, picking up vibrations rather than ambient sound. This direct connection ensures a clear, precise signal for your electronic tuner, making it ideal for band practice, live performances, or any situation where background noise might interfere with tuning.

How do I connect the CM400 to my tuner?

Connecting the Korg CM400 is straightforward. Simply plug its 1/8" TS (mini-jack) cable into the input jack of your compatible electronic tuner. Then, clip the microphone securely onto your instrument. The CM400 is passive, so it doesn't require batteries or a separate power supply, making it easy to use right out of the box.

What types of instruments can I use with the Korg CM400?

The Korg CM400 is versatile and works well with a wide range of acoustic instruments. It's commonly used for guitars, basses, violins, cellos, brass instruments, woodwinds, and more. As long as there's a suitable spot to clip the microphone where it can pick up vibrations, it will provide an accurate signal to your tuner.

What are the benefits of using a contact microphone like the CM400?

The main benefit of the CM400 is its ability to provide highly accurate tuning by isolating your instrument's sound. Unlike a tuner's built-in microphone, which can pick up room noise, the CM400 senses vibrations directly. This means faster, more reliable tuning, even in loud settings.
