Description:

A compact chromatic tuner, ideal for use with brass band or orchestra. With a wide range that covers A0 (27.50 Hz) - C8 (4186.01Hz), you can tune a variety of instruments with the CA-40, including wind, string, and keyboard instruments. The pitch and range are detected quickly and accurately. You can use the built-in high-sensitivity microphone to detect the pitch of an acoustic instrument without requiring any other equipment. Alternatively, you can use the separately sold CM-100 contact microphone to send the vibration of the instrument directly to the tuner, so that you can tune accurately without worrying about other sounds in the environment. An output jack (bypass) has been added, making it easy to check the tuning even while you perform.

Features:

Larger and more easily readable high-precision LCD needle-style meter
Wide detection range from A0 - C8
Calibration function that accommodates a variety of concert pitches
Sound Out function that lets you produce a reference tone from the internal speaker
Bypass function

Korg CA-40 Chromatic Tuner - Even A Caveman Could Use! Nov 29, 2008
I was pleasantly surprised to find the Korg CA-40 Chromatic Tuner lived up to its expectation - based on user reviews. A great price point, compact, but not too small, an easy-to-read LCD display, a well designed built-in stand, and a very brief learning curve with a simple to understand operation manual helps make this unit an excellent complement for virtually any instrument & any skill-level musician. Can you say "Depress the ON Button"? I LOVE the efficacy of the 'Sound Out Mode', which enables the user to arbitrarily select a note, or scale of notes, & hear a precise tonal output. This is a great way to learn the sound of a specific note by both visually seeing the displayed note on the LCD, & hearing the audible pitch of the single note or chord.

Compact and meet the expectation Oct 30, 2008
Brought for my daughter who play cello at the middle school's orchestra. Easy to use and bring to school.

Great product, works as advertised Sep 27, 2008
I bought one of these to help me tune my piano, which was about a half note flat across the entire keyboard. I followed a tutorial that recommended this brand of chromatic tuner. I used the tuner to help me fine-tune the middle C octave, then did most of the rest by ear (as recommended by the tutorial). The tuner worked very well and I liked the digital "needle" to help me visualize the notes. All in all, it took me about 3 hours to complete and my piano sounds a lot better now. This product did its job flawlessly.

Great Tuner! Sep 19, 2008
I bought this for my ukulele and it works like a dream. Great price, great product.

Kung tuner Aug 26, 2008
I bought this tuner to replace my first tuner, a QuickTune which gave up the ghost after eight years, and my second, a Seiko that lasted almost that long. The Kung is better than either of the first two - needle movement more precise, and the display of the note is much more legible. BUY IT!
