Pour l'heure j'en ai testé plusieurs, il reste le meilleur The extreme accuracy may appear to be overkill for musical instrument work but there are times when measuring a pitch to one thousandth of a semitone is usefull. One feature of this type of tuner is the way it shows the decay of a note. long may it last.I am a woodwind instrument maker but I also have other types of instruments to tune, Accordion type reeds and some stringed instruments. it was very good but the Peterson Auto strobe is a great improvement. This is at times a tall order but I think the Auto Strobe 490 is achieving this.My first tuner was a Yamaha PT4 which cost close to $1000 back in 1976. Also I wanted a tuner that would measure harmonic positions within a complex sound.

The AutoStrobe 490 is a true mechanical strobe tuner capable of fundamental and overtone display. This feature also permits real-time display of intonation to improve performance and listening skills while playing. Only Peterson strobe tuners respond at the speed of light to display relative tuning of any audio source to 0.1 of a cent (1/1000 of a semitone) accuracy! With such new AutoStrobe models as the Model 490, students, technicians, and musicians at all levels can utilize automatic (hands-free) note selection for fast, accurate tuning of instruments.
