Planet Waves Full-Function Tuner & Metronome
Planet Waves proclaims it to be "The ultimate practice
workstation." Give it a workout and you'll probably agree.
You can choose between Strobe and Sweep tuning modes. In Strobe mode, the played
note appears in green on the 12-segment rotary display while red LEDs chase
clockwise if you're sharp and counter-clockwise if you're flat. They slow down
and finally stop as you nail the pitch. In Sweep mode, the LEDS sweep left or
right indicating whether you're flat or sharp.
Planet Waves has built in all the extras to make this a full-featured training
tool. These include a pitch pipe, timer, stopwatch, and a very capable metronome
that generates a musical woodblock tone and has programmable beats per measure,
beat subdivisions, and a handy tap-tempo function for locking in to a beat.
A condenser mic, 1/4" I/O, Copy Pitch feature that adapts to various
instruments, and extended 415Hz to 466Hz calibration let you tune pretty much
any instrument while a 1/8" headphone jack enables quiet practice. A retractable
easel positions the unit for best visibility.
