with the OT-120, a new tuner that combines the accuracy of needle-type meters
with superior functionality, wide tuning range and a new, sleek vertical design.
• Chromatic tuner with a wide 8 octave detection range that supports band and
orchestra instruments.
• Dual display provides both a needle-type meter and an LCD for excellent
visibility.
• Sound Back (Patented: Patent pending) mode plays a reference pitch for
the note that's closest to the input pitch. The meter indicates the discrepancy
between the input and the correct pitch.
• Multiple Temperaments support historical tunings.
• Transpose mode is convenient for wind instruments.
• Choose from three levels of needle response speed (slow, medium and fast).
• Both auto and manual tuning modes are provided.
• Built-in reference tone plays in a five octave range.
• Broad range of calibration (349 Hz--499 Hz).
• Built-in mic supports acoustic instruments.
• Use with the optional CM-100 Contact Mic for accurate tuning in noisy
environments.
• Energy-saving design for long battery life (approximately 100 hours).
• Durable soft case included.
Vertical-design and
superior visibility
The OT-120 chromatic tuner is intended for orchestral instruments, packing
precise performance and sophisticated functionality in a vertical design that's
easy to hold and operate. It features a dual-display, an easy-to-see needle-type
indicator and a backlit LCD screen that shows the battery life, sound output
level, calibration, key and note name. Additional design features include a
large dial that makes it easy to select the desired mode, soft-touch buttons and
a rear-mounted stand that lets the unit stand by itself. A sophisticated silver
aluminum panel contributes to its sleek, new look.
Accurately tune orchestral
instruments over a wide range
Since we developed the world's first meter-type tuner in 1975, the accuracy of
Korg tuners has made them the choice of artists in all styles of music. With its
wide tuning range extending from A0 to C8, the OT-120 lets you quickly tune any
type of band instrument including, orchestra, wind, string, brass or piano. The
OT-120 also provides a wide range of calibration to support concert pitches in a
range of A440=349-499 Hz (1 Hz steps).
Smooth and precise tuning
you expect from a needle-type meter
The OT-120 uses a high-precision needle-type meter to accurately indicate any
pitch discrepancy. The speed at which the needle responds to the input can be
changed over a range of three steps; you can choose fast, medium or slow to
match your tuning preference.
You can also choose from two tuning modes; Auto mode, which automatically
detects the pitch of a single note you play on your instrument, or Manual mode,
which lets you specify the desired note name. In Manual mode the needle movement
is shown in a range of ±50 cents, letting you view the tuning discrepancy over a
wide range. In addition to the excellent visibility unique to a needle-type
meter, the LEDs located below the meter also indicate pitch deviation or a
perfect match, making precise tuning easy even in dim locations.
Sound Back mode provides a
reference tone that's ideal for tuning string or wind instruments
The OT-120 produces a reference tone in a five-octave range extending from C2
(65.41 Hz) to C7 (2093 Hz). You can switch the output level in two stages. The
large speaker allows for more volume while not being obstructed even when using
the stand, ensuring that the reference tone is clearly audible.
The OT-120 also provides Korg's proprietary Sound Back mode. This mode
lets you connect an optional CM-100 contact mic to the input jack, and
automatically make the OT-120's speaker produce a reference tone for the note
that is closest to the input pitch you play on your instrument. The meter will
also indicate the input pitch, letting you tune using your eyes as well as your
ears for greater accuracy – and also providing a great way to train your sense
of pitch.
Support for transposing
instruments and historical temperaments
For conveniently tuning any wind instrument, twelve types of transposing keys
are provided including both sharps and flats. The Multi Temperament function
provides eight presets that cover the most popular historical temperaments often
used with period instruments. These are also ideal for checking unique
temperaments used in classical music.
Long battery life
The OT-120 is designed for an extended battery life of approximately 100 hours
when running on two AAA batteries. It can also be used with an AC adaptor (sold
separately).
Soft case included
A durable, suede-tone soft case is included.
