DISC Korg DT4 Chromatic Guitar / Bass Tuner

Full Description

The DT-4's LEDs, around its circumference, indicate how close the input pitch is to the note name displayed in the centre. Along with its incredibly compact size, and easy layout, the illuminated circumference and large note name display provide great visibility. This tuner allows high-precision tuning over a range of A0 (27.50 Hz)--C8 (4186.01 Hz). The adjustable calibration lets you specify the reference pitch in a range of 410 Hz--480 Hz (1 Hz steps). It has a built-in condenser mic for tuning acoustic instruments.

Three Tuning Modes

The DT-4 illuminates the green LEDs around its circumference in one of three tuning modes: Strobe, Mirror, or Meter. There are also triangular red tuning guides that indicate whether the input is sharp or flat.

• Strobe mode: The green LEDs will stop moving when your instrument is in tune. The LEDs will move in a clockwise direction if the pitch of your instrument is sharp, or counter-clockwise if it is flat. When the tuning is correct, the two tuning guides will also light simultaneously.

• Mirror mode: When the two green LEDs at the lower left and right coincide, you're perfectly tuned. The bright green LED will move to the right of centre if the input pitch is sharp, or to the left if it is flat. The distance between the bright green and dim green LEDs indicate the distance to perfect tuning.

• Meter mode: Tune your instrument so that the bright green LED is aligned with the red tuning guide in the centre as on a conventional needle type tuner.

Low Power Consumption

In Strobe mode, if approximately thirty seconds have elapsed without any input sound, the rotating red LEDs will go dark. If approximately ten minutes have elapsed with no audio input while powered-on, the DT-4 will automatically turn off to prevent unnecessary battery consumption.

Korg tuners and metronomes purchased from a Korg UK authorised dealer now have a three year warranty.
