Better than expected for piano tuning. Jan 12, 2009
By Saabtturbo
I purchased this for tuning my violin and piano, assuming it would do a great job on the violin (it does) but was wary of how it would work on the piano. I had been using a Peterson Virtual Stobe tuner for years, using standard piano-tuning techniques and equipment, and preferred tuning to a strobe rather than to a needle or LEDs. But battery leakage had put my VS out of commission. With the Peterson VS having its own imperfections, and a new one now running 3-4 times the cost of the Korg OT-120, I decided to give the Korg a try. (I also purchased the clip mike just in case its built-in mike balked at some of the overtones on my older piano.) I now use the Korg OT-120 regularly, not only to tune my piano and violin, but also as a practicing aid for the violin. It's very responsive and useful in verifying that I'm hitting pitch. After a few months of use I can say that the Korg OT-120 has exceeded my expectations for ease-of-use, value, and effectiveness for tuning my violin and piano, and for practice (strings). The tone generator is useful for ear training as well as for tuning. The display is smaller than I'm used to on the Peterson, but then again the Korg is much more portable. The clip microphone has come in handy for tuning some of the trickier strings at the lower and higher octaves, but I don't need to use it very often. Although I prefer the strobe for how it linearly visualizes pitch adjustment, it took less than half a tuning session to re-adapt to a needle/LED style display. Note: The Peterson has a larger number of tuning temperments than the Korg, so if you're tuning for early music make sure to review the temperments available on the Korg before buying. Nor can you store custom temperments on it.

Excelent response time Jan 15, 2007
By Antonio Noriega
The response time is really fast and accuracy, My father use the tuner for percussion instruments, marimba, lira, xylophones, etc. The Tuner is for professionals, my father made instruments the tuners are using for industrial purposes, OT-120 is the best.

good tuner, but doesn't deliver quite as promised Feb 13, 2009
By Dale J.
"PianoMan"
This tuner is very good for fine tuning most instruments; however, I was disappointed that the range with the built in microphone does cover the entire spectrum of a grand piano. The entire bottom and top octaves will not register at all. I'm not sure yet whether inserting a microphone to the input would extend the range but I was really counting on the tuner (especially considering the price) being able to cover the piano without buying a high quality and expensive microphone.
As for using the Korg OT-120, it is very easy to use and all our players at church rely it to get them with a few cents of each other along with the piano and organ.
