Shelly --
My playing experience goes back to the days of tuning forks. I still have a couple of them. Great progress has been made in this area from the days of the StroboConn or the big Peterson tuners, which could keep the coffee warm with the heat from their vacuum tubes.
Although the Korg seems to be the most popular, there are several brands of tuners available, all of which seem to do the job.
On recommendation, I bought a little Seiko 747 tuner at a local music store for about $30. Judging from Dee's description above, this Seiko has the same functions as the little Korg tuner. Another small low priced tuner which many people like is called Quik-Tune.
Although both my vocal and instrumental pitch sense is better than most, I no longer care to play in a group without one of these devices close by. Now at last we have an objective way to resolve intonation problems with tin eared colleagues.
