Key features include mutable throughputs for in-line (yet silent) tuning during performances, automatic image clarity and contrast control which internally compensate for optimal viewing over a wide range of source pitch and volume, improved clarity for upper and lower register notes (our +2/-1 display feature shifts the strobe patterns into more visible middle ranges so that bass note patterns can be displayed two octaves higher and treble note patterns can be displayed one octave lower in strobe display), and easy transposition (strobe patterns appear at the correct note for Bb, F, and Eb instruments).Our shop uses Google Ads.

Other companies may boast of their strobe tuner capabilities, but buyer beware! The AutoStrobe 490 is a truly stroboscopic mechanical tuner capable of fundamental and overtone display. Enjoy hands-free note selection for fast, accurate tuning of instruments. Only Peterson could bring you the kind of real- time intonation critical enough for ear training use. The Peterson AutoStrobe 490 is agreed by music students, technicians, and professionals to be the standard by which all tuners are measured. I didn't like that at first, but wow, when I tuned the treble section the first time and experienced how quickly and accurately this bab. I do wish someone had prepared me for the noise of the mechanical strobes, this thing doesn't run silently, you can hear the strobe discs turning.

I also use manual mode in my tunings so I won't comment on the auto tune functions. I recommend buying this with both foot switch accessories if you are tuning pianos. I love that it has built in stretch and temperament files. An electronic tuner is never a substitute for the skills of the piano tuner and there are always judgment calls and compromises to be made by ear, but honestly this tuner is AWESOME! I'm very impressed, it allows me to tune quickly and accurately because it's immune to background noise and false beats. The built in stretch and temperament files make it easy to tune and gives excellent results. I use this for tuning pianos - it is extremely accurate and easy to use. At the suggestion of Customer Service Representative Sue Haslam, they installed red LEDs and a brightness control, which makes my unit far more versatile and comfortable to gaze at for long periods in subdued ambient lighting, like in a studio, and bright enough to read in a sun-filled room when the need arises. At first, I did not like the glaringly-bright orange backlight for the strobe display, so I sent it back to the factory for some modification. I've been using genuine strobe wheels since the '60s, and the AutoStrobe 490-ST combines some of the best features of the modern digital devices with the precise mechanical function of the original analog units. However, there is just no substitute for an old-fashioned Strobe Wheel tuner for accuracy, versatility, and ease of use.

I've never been a fan of LCD tuners, even though they have more advanced software and are far more economical and appropriate for working-musicians in small club settings than the larger mechanical tuners.
