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.
