KORG'S POLYPHONIC TUNER - THE PITCHBLACK PORTABLE
Posted on Thu 24 January 2013 in General News
Korg have been busy haven't they? They've announced yet another new product at the NAMM 2013 industry show. This time it's a very futuristic-looking polyphonic guitar/bass tuner called the Pitchblack Portable, which joins their existing popular Pitchblack range. If Michael Knight tuned his guitar, he would definitely use one of these!
But, for those of you that don't know, how does a polyphonic tuner differ from a traditional guitar tuner? The simple answer to that is that you don't need to pluck and tune each string on your instrument individually - instead you can strum all your strings at the same time and instantly see which ones are out of tune and how they need adjusting! This can greatly increase the time that it takes to set-up your instrument. The Korg Pitchblack Portable also features Korg's excellent cable checker function, which allows you to check to see if you've got any dud cables before you go live! Handy!

The Pitchblack Portable will be available in three different finishes: aluminium black, aluminium red and aluminium silver, so the fashion conscious can choose the one that fits in best with the rest of their set-up.
With a tuning accuracy of +/-0.1 cents, the Pitchblack Portable provides superior tuning for any guitar or bass, and with its large, high-brightness LED display, it provides excellent visibility whether you are using it at home or on the road. It even supports different tunings (Flat, Capo and Drop-D).

The Pitchblack Portable is also ideal for floating tremolo systems, where the incorrect pitch of one string may cause all the others to sound 'out'. With the Korg Pitchblack Portable the offending string is immediately exposed, so there is no unnecessary faffing around!
