Samson brings precision tuning and metronome capabilities together in our CM40 Chromatic
Tuner/Metronome. Its compact, easy-to-use design makes tuning any stringed, woodwind or
brass instrument, as well as metronome training, a breeze.
As a chromatic tuner, the CM40 offers a variety of impressive features, including two
modes of tuning: Tone (manual) and Meter (automatic). When using Tone mode, the tuner
automatically recognizes the note you’re playing, while Meter mode allows you to select a
reference pitch. Use its on-board microphone to adjust acoustic instruments and its 1/4”
input connector for electronic instruments. Also, the CM40 puts a flat tuning/transposition
setting at your fingertips. Ultimately, the CM40 always generates a smooth, real-time
response with precise tuning accuracy that can be calibrated between A 430 and 450Hz.
The CM40 also functions as a metronome. Practice along with tempos ranging from 30
to 250 bpm using the tuner’s built-in speaker with volume control, 1/4” output and 1/8”
headphone jack. In Beat mode, you can choose from ten different time signatures. And by
using the Rhythm function, each time signature contains nine rhythm variations for practicing
a wide range of styles. You will master your timing, no matter the time signature or style of
music your playing.
Designed with a large, full color LCD display, as well as LED pitch/beat indicators, the CM40
can be easily used in any environment, including a dark stage. It also features an integrated
kickstand for better viewing. In addition, if not used for five minutes, a convenient auto
power-off function conserves the CM40’s two included AAA batteries that power the CM40 if
it is not in use for 10 minutes.
