Vertical Design and Superior Visibility
The Korg OT-120 chromatic band and orchestral tuner is intended for orchestral instruments, packing precise performance and sophisticated functionality in a vertical design that's easy to hold and operate. The Korg OT-120 features a dual-display, an easy-to-see needle-type indicator and a backlit LCD screen that shows the battery life, sound output level, calibration, as well as key and note name. Additional design features include a large dial that makes it easy to select the desired mode, soft-touch buttons and a rear-mounted stand that lets the band and orchestral tuner stand by itself. A sophisticated silver aluminum panel contributes to its sleek, new look.

Accurately Tune Orchestral Instruments Over a Wide Range
Since we developed the world's first meter-type tuner in 1975, the accuracy of Korg tuners has made them the choice of artists in all styles of music. With its wide tuning range extending from A0 to C8, the OT-120 lets you quickly tune any type of band instrument including, orchestra, wind, string, brass or piano. The Korg OT-120 also provides a wide range of calibration to support concert pitches in a range of 349-499 Hz (1 Hz steps).

Smooth and Precise Tuning
This band and orchestral tuner uses a high-precision needle-type meter to accurately indicate any pitch discrepancy. The speed at which the needle responds to the input can be changed over a range of three steps; you can choose fast, medium or slow speeds to match your tuning preference.

You can also choose from two tuning modes; Auto mode, which automatically detects the pitch of a single note you play on your instrument, or Manual mode, which lets you specify the desired note name. In Manual mode, the needle movement is shown in a range of 50 cents, letting you view the tuning discrepancy over a wide range. In addition to the excellent visibility unique to a needle-type meter, the LEDs located below the meter also indicate pitch deviation or a perfect match, making precise tuning easy even in dim locations.

Sound Back Mode for Tuning String or Wind Instruments
The OT-120 produces a reference tone in a five-octave range extending from C2 (65.41 Hz) to C7 (2093 Hz). You can switch the output level in two stages. The large speaker allows for more volume while not being obstructed even when using the stand, ensuring that the reference tone is clearly audible.

The OT-120 also provides Korg's proprietary Sound Back mode. This mode lets you connect an optional CM-100L contact microphone to the input jack, and automatically make the OT-120's speaker produce a reference tone for the note that is closest to the input pitch you play on your instrument. The meter will also indicate the input pitch, letting you tune using your eyes as well as your ears for greater accuracy--and also providing a great way to train your sense of pitch.

Support for Transposing Instruments and Historical Temperaments
For conveniently tuning any wind instrument, twelve types of transposing keys are provided in this band and orchestral tuner, including both sharps and flats. The Multi Temperament function provides eight presets that cover the most popular historical temperaments often used with period instruments. These are also ideal for checking unique temperaments used in classical music.

Long Battery Life
The OT-120 is designed for an extended battery life of approximately 100 hours when running on two AAA batteries. It can also be used with an AC adaptor (sold separately).

Soft Case Included
A durable, suede-tone soft case is included. Korg band and orchestral tuners purchased from a Korg USA authorized dealer now have a three year warranty.

Hohner Super Chromonica Chromatic Harmonica (Key of A) Reviews

Within a couple weeks after I bought this harmonica, two of the reeds were stuck - not sounding at all. I love this harmonica - I am more or less a beginner, and loved being able to play things - like Greensleeves - which always missed a note because of the single sharp...or "If I were a rich man" which is loaded with accidentals, at least to my ear.br /br /This harp allowed me to play anything - three full octaves, and a simple system - push the side button and everything goes up a semitone. All the notes were there. Reeds were within a couple hertz of their tuning.br /br /Also, I have a mustache and beard, and the shell was fitted to the body so well that it never grabbed a hair. This matters to me. Occasionally I would get a hair grabbed when I hit the button - nothing can be done about that. But I bought some cheap harmonicas and could not play them at all.br /br /But I would clean it like they said, tapping it on a towel, and it still would stick.br /br /Hohner offered to clean it for me - all I had to do was mail it to them. Since it started sticking within a couple weeks of first ownership, I could not imagine mailing it to them every couple weeks.br /br /What I have learned was that I could use distilled water. Distilled water and canned dusting air. Squirt it right in through the hole that led to the stuck reed, let it soak a little and then blow it out. Repeat. Sooner or later it would break loose. It would not play well that day but the next day it played fine after it dried out and got its tone back.br /br /Well, the bottom couple notes still don't work right, but the mid range and the high range...I'd be happy to play The Star Spangled Banner on this harp. It sounds good - good enough that I've been practicing at Starbucks and gotten requests - and not "Far Far Away."br /br /As long as their request isn't for a tune that has a reed that is stuck that day. And I have my bottle of distilled water and a syringe to squirt it into the right hole.br /br /And if I was playing this harp professionally, I'd probably have to buy two or three to be sure I had one that worked.

Almost perfect! - Elizabeth A Triano - In Transition, NY (watch this space)
This is a fun harp, especially for those of us who can't just make music spontaneously and need to play from a musical score. The range of notes and the sharp button make it possible to play almost any song that one might like.
