Product Description
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. |
