The INPUT jack is only for a 1/4" mono
cable. Stereo (TRS) cables cannot be used.
If you want to tune your instrument using a
Korg contact mic (separately sold), plug the
contact mic into the TM-50’s INPUT jack.
If a device is not connected to the INPUT
jack, tuning will be performed by the
internal mic.

You can connect headphones with a 1/8"
mini-plug to the PHONES jack.
When plugged in, no sound will be heard
from the speaker. Use the volume control to
adjust the volume of the headphones output.
