 The fellow who sits next to me in the sax section had a new tuner that I hadn't seen before.  It works by sensing the vibrations produced in/by the instrument so that it is not affected by ambient noise, which seems like an improvement over my old tuner.  It works on most instruments. 
 
They have a web site, if anyone wants to see what it looks like:

I bought one for myself today, but have no affiliation whatsoever with this company.

 A saxophone player who owned a tuner?   
 
Well, I guess anything is possible.

 Re: "A saxophone player who owned a tuner?" 
 
And... there are now two of us!  That's a 100% increase in just one week.  At that rate it will be only a few hundred years before all sax players have tuners ![[grin]](http://test.woodwind.org/clarinet/BBoard/smileys/smilie5.gif)

 Hey, there's a vast difference between owning a tuner and actually USING it :-)  Just kidding.  Well, mostly.....

 You can buy a tuner pick up that clips to the instrument and plugs into the input of most good tuners. This does the same thing. The one I have is called the Matrix Universal Tuner Pick-up. It works great when trying to tune in a group that is warming up with a lot of noise.
