The Korg CA-50 packs high-precision tuning into a convenient pocket-sized design. Its predecessor, the CA-40, has been a top-selling chromatic tuner for more than a decade. The CA-50 builds upon that legacy while adding a more readable display, improved battery life, and a mechanism to prevent the tuner from sliding off your music stand. You also get all the great features you’ve come to expect from Korg, such as a wide detection range, easy calibration, built-in reference tone, pure major/minor third-interval markers, and memory backup. Ideal for orchestral instruments, the CA-50 is an excellent portable tuning solution.
You can find Korg’s CA-40 chromatic tuner in orchestra rooms worldwide — its wide detection range makes it suitable for nearly every instrument. Musicians have long valued its high-precision LCD needle-type metering and flexible calibration. The CA-50 improves upon its forerunner’s design in many ways. Its display features larger note name indicators, making it a breeze to read. A new mechanism prevents the tuner from overturning, making it less likely to slide off your music stand. Beyond that, its battery life has been increased to up to 135 hours.
