Tuners | page 3

A tuner helps set the correct pitch before practice, recording or a performance. Choose the type for your instrument, environment and signal setup. The main differences are how pitch is detected, how the tuner is operated and which extra functions it provides.

Clip-on tuners sense instrument vibrations and are convenient for quick tuning without a cable. Pedal tuners sit in the signal chain and can be controlled by foot on stage, leaving both hands free.

Standard units work well for everyday use, multifunction models may combine tuning with a metronome, and rack tuners suit a fixed setup. If you want both functions in one device, see multifunction tuners.
