Be in perfect harmony with the CA-50 Chromatic Tuner, your ultimate, portable, and high-precision tuning solution. Designed with a slim and compact profile, this durable tuner is ideal for musicians on the go. Its enhanced visibility and larger note name indication make it a breeze to use, even for beginners.
The CA-50 Chromatic Tuner is renowned as the standard in chromatic tuners, offering a comprehensive tuning experience for every instrumentalist. Its LCD screen showcases a needle-type meter for quick and accurate pitch detection, and a note name indication at the center of the display.
This versatile tuner supports a wide detection range from A0 (27.50 Hz) to C8 (4186.01 Hz), making it suitable for tuning any instrument, from wind instruments like piccolo and tuba to string instruments like violin and contrabass. Its built-in high-sensitivity microphone ensures accurate note detection, even without a contact mic. For even more precision, you can use the separately sold CM-200 contact mic to eliminate the influence of nearby sounds.
The CA-50 Chromatic Tuner also features a calibration function that supports a variety of concert pitches. It can be adjusted in 1 Hz units in the range of 410-480 Hz, allowing for flexible tuning that matches the song or key. The meter scale provides marks that indicate pure major and minor third intervals, enabling you to play beautiful harmonies in an ensemble.
For those looking to improve their ear training, the "Sound Out" mode emits a reference tone from the internal speaker, allowing you to tune by ear. A reference tone in the range of C4 (261.63 Hz) to C5 (523.25 Hz) can be output, enabling you to check the pitch using both eye and ear.
The CA-50 Chromatic Tuner boasts an impressive battery life of approximately 135 hours (when using zinc-carbon batteries). A low battery indicator ensures you're never caught off guard during a performance. The tuner's design reduces the risk of it sliding off a music stand, allowing you to focus on your performance.
With a memory backup function that remembers your settings even when the power is off and an auto power-off function that conserves battery life, the CA-50 Chromatic Tuner is as practical as it is stylish. The folding stand and integrated battery cover design add to its functionality, making it a reliable tool for every musician.
