Questions & Answers
The throat isn't wide enough to allow enough air to flow through it. According to the product literature, the throat only opens to a maximum of 1. 4 cm (58 inches) I was able to get it up to 1 point. By removing the small rubber pads, I was able to increase the length to 75 inches, which was just enough for my viola. This will not fit unless you have a very thin ukulele. A tuner that clamps to your peghead, I believe, would suffice.
It's at least as good as, if not better than, the original. Designed to fit your violin perfectly. There isn't any snark here.
Yes, after @5 private lessons and 1/2 year of weekly school lessons, my son began using it when he began playing violin. However, the device is simple to operate and does not necessitate any prior knowledge of the violin. He should be able to read and understand the instructions on it.
Sorry, but I'm not familiar with lyre harps. This ratchet only goes so far, and I'm not convinced it's as reliable as the IntelliTouch. It simply appears to be cool.

Rather, IT ATTACHES TO THE SURFACE. This is a huge improvement! This tuner's genius is that it does not need to be clipped on. Rather, IT ATTACHES TO THE SURFACE. Unlike clipons, which can easily fall off a violin, this one stays put. When the violin is in its case, I can also leave it on the violin. It's not necessary to remove it. It's a little smaller than I expected, but the display is bright and easy to read. br>br>It's a little smaller than I expected, but the display is bright and easy to read. It's also chromatic, and I'd prefer it if the note name was accompanied by an octave number. Just so I'm not thinking about it. br>br>My only real gripe is that it automatically shuts off after 10 minutes, which can be inconvenient. Every time it detected a note, I would have preferred it to restart its shutdown timer. br>br>Because of the lack of instructions, there has been some misunderstanding, so allow me to explain. The tuner and metronome modes are switched by pressing the "M" (Mode) button. If you want to mount the tuner upside down, press the button with the rotating arrows to invert the display. br>br>After the first one failed after a few days, Amazon immediately replaced it. Amazon, you did an excellent job. br>br>This is the most practical violin tuner I've come across. It is strongly suggested.
This tuner was "USED - BRAND NEW" when I bought it. BRAND NEW". Apart from the fact that it was in a plastic bag, it was in perfect condition. It performs admirably even when taken out of its packaging. Because it's small, it'll easily fit into my bag. It is capable of correctly identifying notes. I've experimented with more expensive tuners. Some people can't even recognize an open string, which is a basic task. You can also change the frequency. That's a good thing. After all, not everybody tunes at 440. I am a professional violinist who performs in a variety of settings, including solo, with a band, in very quiet venues, and at extremely loud events. Sometimes the venue's sound system prevents me from getting a very clean "A" from the keyboardist/pianist; other times, the sound is so loud that I can't hear my tuning fork. It's ideal in a pinch because this tuner has a display. For the price, this tuner is a good buy. It would be a must-have if it were less expensive, and if you can find a good deal on it, I would recommend it to all violinists who must tune in unusual situations (some of which I have mentioned). I would also recommend it to any beginning violinists who aren't yet able to tune their instruments by ear. It's a teeny-tiny piece of equipment. It will fit into even the tiniest of cases.
At the International Folk Alliance last year, this was the hottest new tuner. I didn't get one at the time, but I wish I had because everyone was so enthusiastic about it at the time. This summer, I finally gave in and bought one, mounting it on my main fiddle, expecting it to be some sort of magical device based on the hype. It works just like any other clip-on tuner and is placed in front of me for tuning convenience. This one has a habit of loosening up during a jam, but other tuners aren't designed to stay on at all, so it gets bonus points for staying on with only minor adjustments. Before putting the fiddle back in its case, it should still be removed. It's not something you'd take off the fiddle to lend to the guitarist next to you, as you can with Snark-styled tuners, but it's a good tuner in the dark, and you'll always know where it is because you can't loan it out. I'd give it a four out of five. If there were such a thing as 5 stars, I'd give it to it because I wanted it to be better in some way, but it's not bad and is a step in the right direction.
I absolutely adore this product; I'm a beginner violinist, and it has greatly aided me in tuning my violin at home when my teacher is unavailable. It's also helped me figure out if I'm playing with my fingers in the right place. It is extremely accurate. I put it up against our piano, and it's so small that it's almost undetectable. The digital display is crisp and easy to read. It changes color depending on whether you're flat or sharp on the key. It's a perfect fit for my violin. It's also adjustable, so it should work with any violin size. The display angle can also be changed to face you in a more comfortable position. The only thing I wish I could change is that it turns off after a certain amount of time, and I have to keep turning it back on. I wish there was a setting where you could choose "auto" for automatic shutoff or "on" if you wanted it to stay on the entire time you were playing. Aside from that, this is an excellent product, especially for a novice like myself.
One of these is on my violin teacher's instrument. It appeared to be far more practical than the other larger tuner, which is not attached to the fiddle. It was just another item to remove from the case and locate a suitable location for. I can keep it attached with this style. It's not obtrusive; I simply placed it next to the next on the violin's body so that I can see it while playing. It's fully adjustable and has a small lever that gently locks it down. It's useful for a beginner like me, not only for initial tuning but also for ensuring that I'm hitting the right spots on the neck while playing. br> It includes a battery. I simply yanked the protective tab and it began to work. It has a nice bright readout and, in comparison to my other tuner, appears to be very accurate. By pressing the arrow buttons, you can change it from 440 to something else. An on/off switch with a soft touch is included. Overall, it's a fantastic tuner.
This was 28 dollars three days ago, and it's now over $14, which is why it's only a four-star review rather than a five-star review. br>Apart from that. . This is a truly magnificent piece of software. I'd been practicing the fiddle while taking online and YouTube lessons. When I was learning Maggie In The Woods, every time I switched from D to A, it sounded like a complete train wreck. On my iPhone, I was using a tuner app. I thought I needed to replace my A string because it was sounding terrible. Nope! This was just 20 minutes ago when I got it out of the mail - Wa•la! I tuned my fiddle. It's a totally different sound. Smooth and silky from start to finish! I wish I had gotten this years ago! br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br>br Another reviewer stated that you should read it upside down (eye roll), but if you read the directions, it is very clear how to change the display.
