Korg CA1 Chromatic Tuner--Perfect Pitch Every Time
The Korg CA1 chromatic guitar and bass tuner features an enhanced design with
new features based on the best selling Korg CA30 chromatic tuner. High accuracy
and superb functionality have made Korg tuners a worldwide favorite. The Korg
CA1 tuner packs basic functionality and convenient tuning functions into

Wide Range of Pitch Detection
The Korg CA1 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 microphone is built in, allowing easy and accurate tuning of
acoustic instruments such as ukuleles.
Ultra-Compact Body with a "Tilt Slit"
Although the Korg CA1 chromatic tuner is small, thin, and light, don't let its
pocket-sized body fool you. The CA1 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.
Features an easy-to-read LCD display.

High-Precision Display and Sound
The meter section uses an 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. In addition to
visual tuning via meter, the CA-1 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.
Adjustable Calibration
The Calibration function (410-480 Hz) of this chromatic tuner 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.)
Power-Saving Functions
The power will turn off automatically if the unit is left powered-on for 20
minutes without performing any operation, avoiding unnecessary battery
consumption. Low-power consumption design allows an amazing 100 hours
(approximate) of continuous battery life (A4 continuous input, meter mode,
zinc-carbon batteries).
