I have many harmonicas in various keys. Is this tuner suitable for that?

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 only use it to amp my harmonica. There are some spatial effects that add depth to it. I think it was designed more for a guitar

Not sure but probably. I use mine some for violin but mostly I use a guitar tuner.

It does NOT set to a certain key to tune as it just allows to tune ALL the notes in turn. You play a note, it detects what note you are trying to play and displays it along with the needle pointing straight up if you are right on or left/right if you are low/high. As you change the tone of the instrument in tuning, the needle moves so that you can get it in tune as straight up. Thus, you tune a plethora of notes as shown on a normal piano keyboard, bottom to top. You can tune A,B,C,D,E,F,G and the sharps and flats of all the notes. I've tuned pianos, violin, and guitar with it. It also will emit a sound (that you set). That way you can tune by ear to the sound.

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).

As long as the instrument is equal tempered (based on 12 note chromatic scale), you should be able to tune with this tuner. Sincerely, Kevin - Daybreak Enterprises, Inc.

It works well for me. I have 2 Korg workstations 88 keys and 61 keys. It's a little tight but with the smaller one on the top at just about level, it works. There is a little room for modification if you're okay with that.

It will show you the exact tuning of what each string is. So you can definitely tune any bass or guitar with this. Most tuners will work that way. This one is simple and easy to use.

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.

It appears the StroboPlus HD tuner may be used to tune an acoustic piano. It has a built in microphone. It's range is 16Hz to 8000Hz, which is greater than the range of the piano which is 27.5Hz (A0) to 4186Hz (C8).Under a small section on piano tuning the manual states: " Do not attempt without having basic tuning skills and technique. Learn the correct use of mutes and a tuning hammer before attempting to tune your piano, if in doubt, consult a qualified piano technician."

It is "music wire" and should be fine on a piano for the higher notes that do not have wrapped strings. It should also be fine for multiple string notes as long as the wire diameter is correct.

I have two of the Hohner 32Bs (one for home, one for friend's house). Both needed some tuning, a frustrating process, but worth it. The D'Luca needed the most tuning. It has a somewhat more piercing tone, if that's what you like, and more uneven touch response across the keyboard.

Yes it works wonderful for any instrument, just remember you have to have the tone already before you tune. This would be a fine tuner, also while your are playing it help with the beat and also that you are in tune. For instance if you play C on the piano/keyboard, every C will show on your Tuner. I love mine, and use it all the time.

You can change both and it has both coarse and fine tuning for songs that are between keys.I love mine.

i have only used it on my electric guitars to this point however, it seems it should work just fine on all tuners. hope that helps.

Yes, not worth it though. It doesn't stay in tune long enough for one song. Running keys are garbage!

Yes. You can use the chromatic mode to tune any string to any note frequency. All you need to know is what each string should be tuned to for drop D (or any other tuning). If you do not know the notes then it is a good idea that you learn them :)
