Can I use it as a violin tuner?

As the unit is designed to pick up pitch via vibration, I would assume it can be used on any stringed instrument. That being said, there are web sites available on this topic, here is one using a guitar tuner on a violin: http://www.ehow.com/how_6199235_tune-violin-guitar-tuner.html

As far as I know, they only make one "4/4" size tuner. I ordered it from Amazon, and they fit my 4/4 violin just fine.

Sharon I hadn't really thought about that but when I read your question I took it out of the box & turned it on. I made sounds as singing different notes and the hand started going to different notes and working. It did just like when I used it to tune my violin. I hope this helps you.

This is for vocals mostly so I wouldn't think you would need an inline tuner

I believe you can, but you do need to buy a tuner separately. It doesn't come with one.

You could, but this guitar is not intended for that purpose. The tuners are made for the smaller diameter steel strings, and the bridge does not have a tie block that is required. Also, the string spacing is too narrow. Find a good purpose-built nylon string guitar, such as the Yamaha NTX700 instead.

I play guitar and piano. Considering that violin is similar in some aspects. This would probably be just as useful as it is for guitar. It is great for strengthening and staying in practice and pattern excercises. I think it would be perfectly fine for violin :)

Sorry, but I cannot answer your inquiry about this unit as a vocal tuner, although tones are tones and it should work. It is an excellent tool for piano tuning, does a very pleasing job for my Yamaha upright.

Yes. Provided it is the same shape and length as a 4/4 acoustic violin. thanks. Castle Music

I've not tried it but the description says, "This compact chromatic tuner supports a broad range of C1 (32.70 Hz)-C8 (4186.01 Hz), allowing speedy and high-precision tuning of wind, string, keyboard, and other instruments" so I'd think so. I have 3 for guitars and they work great for that (2 are the newer CA-1 model, which is almost the same).

Yes it can. Actually That's how it was designed to work. Just clamp it to the headstock, turn it on and tune. I'm a bass player and that's how I tune.

probably not , if you have a small viola. If violin and viola has the same size bridge.

According to http://www.get-tuned.com/how-to-tune-the-autoharp.php, yes, an electronic tuner can be used.

Yes, it would work. The tuner would have to be in contact with the flute to pick up vibrations. I tried it with a hand made recorder and it did register the specific notes played.

The sound is pretty typical of electronic violins. It is fine for practice. If used for performance, external amplification and tonal controls will be required and the quality of the sound will be dependent more on the quality of those devices than on this instrument. If he has a decent standard violin, he will be dissapointed in the dynamic range of this or any other electronic instrument.

You could tune to any instrument type but you would most likely need to change the strings to get the best tone. I would change the fourth string first.

I don't know. I use it for student violin finger position markers. It works great on violins.
