Ultra-compact,
LCD Needle-Style Chromatic
Tuners
High accuracy and superb
functionality have made Korg
tuners the worldwide favorite.
And now, the new CA-30 joins
the best-selling CA series of
tuners. With even more
features, like a pitch
reference tone and quinta-flat
tuning, the CA-30 packs basic
functionality and convenient
tuning functions into
ultra-compact bodies.
Features:
· Compact chromatic tuner,
ideal for brass band or
orchestra.
· High-precision LCD
needle-type meter for stable
tuning.
· Wide range of pitch
detection covers C1--C8.
· Calibration function
supports a variety of concert
pitches.
· Sound Out produces a
reference tone from the
internal speaker.
· Auto Power Off function
conserves battery life.
· Memory Backup function.
· Approximately 100 hours of
continuous use.
Wide
Range of Pitch Detection
This compact chromatic tuner
supports a broad range of C1
(32.70 Hz)--C8 (4186.01 Hz),
allowing speedy and
high-precision tuning of wind,
string, keyboard, and other
instruments. This tuner is
ideal for tuning even
low-register notes containing
numerous overtones that are
often difficult to tune. A
high-sensitivity mic is
built-in, allowing easy and
accurate tuning of acoustic
instruments such as ukuleles.
A separately sold CM-100
contact mic can also be used
to send the vibrations
directly to the tuner for even
more accurate tuning.
Ultra-compact
body with a "Tilt
Slit"
Although the CA-30 is small,
thin, and light, don’t let
its pocket-sized body fool
you. The CA-30 packs the
functionality needed for
tuning a wide range of
instruments. From studio to
stage, tuning is easy and
convenient. The back of the
unit includes a unique
arc-shaped "tilt
slit" that lets you
insert a plastic card for use
as a handy stand.
High-precision
LCD Meter
The meter section uses a LCD
needle, combining the accuracy
of an LCD with the easy
visibility of a needle, and
providing a stable display.
Additional visual feedback is
provided by LEDs that indicate
pitch deviation.
Sound
Out -- Internal Speaker
Provides a Reference Pitch
In addition to visual tuning
via meter, the CA-30 can play
reference pitches from its
internal speaker (Sound Out)
for tuning by ear. Each press
of the Sound switch will cycle
through the A4--Bb4 notes
commonly used for tuning wind
instruments. Or you can hold
down the Sound switch to
change the cycle to the
semitone intervals from C4
through C5 (one octave),
allowing reference pitches for
any instrument to be sounded
quickly.
Calibration
Function
The Calibration function
(410--480 Hz) supports a wide
range of standard pitches, and
can be adjusted in 1 Hz steps
for accurate and flexible
tuning to any song or key.
Thanks to the Memory Backup
function, the Calibration and
reference pitch are remembered
even when the power is turned
off. (However, these settings
will be initialized when the
batteries are replaced.)
Auto
Power Off Function
If you leave the unit
powered-on for 20 minutes
without performing any
operation, the Auto Power Off
function will turn the power
off automatically, avoiding
unnecessary battery
consumption.
Approximately
100 hours of Continuous Use
Low-power consumption design
allows an amazing 100 hours
(approximate) of continuous
battery life (A4 continuous
input, Meter mode, zinc-carbon
batteries).
* Even if the pitch is within
the detection range, detection
may not be possible for
instrumental sounds that
contain a large number of
overtones or have a rapid
decay.
