The Korg PC1 Pitchclip Clip-on Chromatic Tuner is a simple, convenient clip-on chromatic tuner with a compact, lightweight, and discreet design that's ideal for every musician. Used and loved by players around the world, Korg's clip-on tuners have earned a place as standard equipment for the modern musician. The affordable and easy-to-use pitchclip is the latest addition to the popular Korg clip-on family. Extremely user-friendly, the pitchclip offers highly accurate tuning, fast and ultra-responsive results, and excellent visibility.
The design goals for pitchclip were simple, convenient features and total ease of use. Clip the tuner to your headstock, flick on the power, and you’re ready to tune. As you play a string, the built-in piezo sensor will quickly sense the instrument’s vibrations and indicate the pitch in the meter. The clear, bright, and easy-to-read LED display reverses to assure easy viewing when mounted on either side of the headstock. The Korg Pitchclip is the choice for every player who desires fast, accurate, and carefree tuning!
Boasting fast pitch detection and processing, accuracy within ±1 cent, and a detection range from A0 to C8, the Korg pitchclip outperforms many of the clip-on tuners on the market today. Some of these tuners cost two to three times more than the affordable PC1 Pitchclip, while still only offering half the features this tuner offers! By locating the battery compartment in the clip itself, the display unit has become discreet, lightweight, and articulate. The pitchclip's high-contrast LED display can be inverted, assuring clear visibility when mounted in front of or behind the headstock on any instrument - guitar, bass, ukulele, banjo, mandolin, etc. A single CR2032 Battery provides a generous 17 hours of use thanks to the Auto Power-Off function that effectively preserves the battery life.
Compact, lightweight and discreet design - The tuner and display portion of the pitchclip is extremely compact; the battery compartment has been integrated into the clip itself. The meter display uses a sleek design with no protrusions, which affords a discreet and unobtrusive addition to your instrument. Convenient and lightweight, the pitchclip can be slipped into your pocket or guitar case without adding bulk or taking up valuable space, so you can take it anywhere.
Clear, bright, and easy-to-read LED display - The pitchclip’s bright LED display ensures high contrast and a wide angle of visibility. The meter indication remains clear even in dimly lit locations. Adjustable through 120 degrees, the meter/display section can be raised to provide the player with good visibility while tuning in a natural position.
Display reverse mode assures easy viewing - This function conveniently and quickly reverses the meter display, switching top and bottom. This prevents the player from having to view the display information upside down; regardless of whether the tuner is attached to the front or the rear of the headstock. When powering on, simply hold down the power switch for an extended time to reverse the display. Now, the musician is free to choose the position that's most comfortable and convenient; this feature also makes the pitchclip a great choice for left-handed players as well.
Highly accurate & ultra-responsive, offering wide detection range - Boasting fast pitch detection and processing, accuracy with ±1 cent, and a detection range that covers from A0 to C8, the pitchclip outperforms many of the clip-on tuners on the market today. Combined with the affordable price and enhanced display, the pitchclip is a remarkable value.
Reliable, highly-stable clip design - A newly engineered type of rubber is used in the clip, allowing the reliable attachment to a variety of headstocks; ukulele, electric bass, classical guitar and so on. By relocating the battery compartment to the clip section, the meter display section has been made lighter and slimmer, lowering the overall center of gravity and creating a more secure mounting than ever before.
Auto Power-Off extends battery life - Using a widely-available lithium coin battery (CR2032) provides the pitchclip with a generous 17 hours of operation. The Auto Power-Off function automatically turns the pitchclip off when no sound has been detected for approximately ten minutes, avoiding unnecessary battery consumption.
