The Korg CM100L Contact Microphone is a perfect compliment to any tuner that offers an audio input jack. The mic can be positioned to get a more sensitive reading, while allowing the tuner to be positioned for easier reading. The jack is a 1/4 inch male phone connector.

Amazon.com Product Review

The CM-100L Contact Microphone is a perfect compliment to any tuner that offers an audio input jack. The mic can be positioned to get a more sensitive measurement, while allowing the tuner to be positioned for easier reading.

The clip style mic is ideally suited for clipping on to the body of an instrument to pick up the tuning note directly with minimal interference from ambient sound. It can be easily clipped on to the bell of a trumpet or the headstock of a guitar, for example.

Tuning via microphone can be convenient for accurate tuning in noisy environments, and the CM-100L also lets you access Korg's Sound Back mode (available on some models), which produces a reference tone closest to the input pitch you play on your instrument.

The CM-100L jack is a 1/4-inch male phone connector.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Product, June 30, 2008

I have recently decided to attempt to tune my own piano, so I did some research and found out that the Korg CM-100 Tuner Clip was a necessity. No matter where I attach the tuner clip on my piano it picks up a clear signal and sends it to my Korg Chromatic Tuner. This product has made it very easy to tune my piano now and I never have to hire out to a professional again. The Korg CM-100 Tuner Clip along with the Korg Chromatic Tuner is a perfect combination to tune any instrument. As a music teacher, I highly recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Quality Mic, But Not So Strong Wire, February 26, 2010

This is the second one I purchased in one year. The contact mic works well with my Krog tuner. Responses quick enough to be use during slow playing. The problem is its wire. I regularly roll up the wire onto the tuner for easy storing and carrying. After less than a year, the wire broke at both ends.

I am totally satisfied with this product. For years I struggled trying to tune acoustic guitars. This simple clip works on acoustic guitars by attaching it to the top - it picks up the vibrations directly through the wood/steel/plastic of the instrument, not the sound through the air. No more interference from background noise. Trying to tune the "old" way without this clip is now painful. I have not tried it with anything but my Korg GA-40 tuner, but I'm betting that any tuner with a 1/4" port for electric guitars should work with this. Yes it adds about $11 to the cost of your tuner, but freedom from aggravation is worth it.
