Compatible with chromatic C harmonica?

I agree with what D. Burton answered to the question. In my own words, it will tell you what note you're actually playing, sharp or flatted, and it works for all the scale notes.

I'm not sure what you mean by "compatible" since the tuner simply works by displaying the nearest (single) note played along with the frequency in Hz with the "needle" line showing whether the note played is sharp or flat with respect to that. I had to look up what a "Chromatic C harmonica" is, but since it plays a chromatic scale, then yes, the display will show an appropriate name for the note (e.g. 466 Hz would show "A#" ). If you are wondering about the range of the tuner, I'm pretty sure that it would be fine for any harmonica. The lowest string of a cello (two octaves below middle C) was too low for it, but I doubt a harmonica would play notes that low.

None of my harps fit in the loops (Hohner Special 20s, Hohner Blues Harp MS, Suzuki ProMasters). If you want something that will hold your harps for fast key changes on stage, try to work something out with a double-stack pistol magazine carrier. Harps fit great in those. This one works nicely: Voodoo Tactical MOLLE Compatible Double Pistol Magazine Pouch - Tactical Black

This is great for my flute that goes from C-4 (Middle C) to C-7, or 3 octaves. It will play a note for tuning showing the octave numbers from C-4 to C-7, but when I play a note on my flute, it tells me if I am flat or sharp, and shows the note, but not the octave. It is complicated to explain. It is great for flute, but I would not buy it for a piano. You should check with Borg, or somewhere that sells pianos and/or tuners. It did show sharp or flat below C-4 and above C-7 on the piano, but the directions indicate you can't rely on those readings.

I am running Propellerhead's Reason software with mine. It works great with the Kong Drum virtual instrument.

I used a microphone with a 1/4in jack. It sounded ok with harmonica. Not sure about singing through it though. Be careful with volume, settings & feedback. You can toast your amp in a heartbeat.

I imagine it would be just fine. I just installed this model this summer in my Yamaha Clavinova CVP 209 and it works great.Here's my reddit thread about the install: http://www.reddit.com/r/piano/comments/2albwg/i_did_it_i_installed_a_usb_floppy_emulator_on_my/

The key of C is very good. My first harmonica was in the key of B flat. I then went to the key of G. I prefer the key of G when it comes to 19th century western tunes, old-time gospel hymns, and jazz blues melodies. I find, as a solo player, bending single notes with a lot of vibrato, in the lower register, really comes to life in the key of G...for me anyway.

I would suggest the EurekaPROM to go with it. Makes it function as a stompbox with native support for guitar VSTs like this.

Hey - I never had any luck mixing the Digitech RP355 with harmonica. Unpredictable feedback. I recommend the EHX Deluxe Memory Boy and Holy Grail. Also look into pedals by the Lone Wolf Blues Company, particularly the Tone Plus.

Yesset it on chromatic, tune your instruments to concert pitch ( the A note above middle C has a frequency of 440 Hz ) and you're good in any key.

I've seen one of these tuners used in tuning an antique reed organ, the reeds of which are essentially the same as those in harmonicas. I just opened a Hohner chromatic harmonica I have and observed the tell-tale scratches of tuning done at the factory (so a harmonica most certainly CAN be tuned) but I know I'd be nervous about attempting it myself.

I do not know. I have a Kurzweil keyboard. I suggest calling Yamaha on their 800 # and asking. However, I think it's pretty universal, so long as you have a quarter inch input for a pedal.

Using the chromatic setting you can tune any string to any note. For example I use it to tune to open E tuning . I was told in an email by the company that the standard tuning setting is pretty much just there as a guide to new users (i.e. these are notes you should tune to). So as long as you know what note to tune strings to in a C tuning you will be fine.

It would work with any ten holes harp. I just have a Suzuki as different grande from hohner,mand it fits perferct. I think it runs with all DIATONIC (ten holes) harmonicas

Not a good idea. The tuner doesn't respond to any of lowest 15 white and black keys below C2, which is two octaves below C4 (middle C).

I bought this amp for use with blues harp. It is my go to amp for gigging. I did some mods to make it a little more harp friendly but it will work great for harp right out of the box. I have three mics I use with it depending on the sound I want. Clean, vintage, blues overdriven. I works great with all three. I paid about half the current price because I bought mine a few years ago when they first came out. Even at the current price, you really can't go wrong. Buy it and enjoy it with no worries!
