Yamaha YT250 Chromatic Tuner Tunes Any
Instrument
 July 23, 1999To appeal to the value-conscious musician, Yamaha Corporation of America,
Pro Audio & Combo Division, Accessories, announces the availability
of its new YT250 Auto/Manual Chromatic Tuner at Summer NAMM '99. The new
tuner employs Yamaha innovation to provide features normally found only
in more expensive tuners. Building upon the success of the Yamaha YT150,
the YT250 uses a liquid-crystal display to precisely and quickly tune
any instrument across eight octaves. Sharp/flat/in-tune LED indicators
also make it remarkably easy to tune in the dark or from a distance.
The tuner has both a condenser microphone and In/Out jacks, allowing
it to tune virtually any musical instrument in either Auto or Manual mode.
A 9-volt battery is included, unlike many other tuners, and Yamaha provides
a two-year warranty, which is twice the industry standard.
"The YT250 tuner gives Yamaha an impressive line of value-oriented
tuners when combined with the YT150," states Dave Ominsky, Accessory
marketing manager.
Other features of the new YT250 are a pitch-shift feature that allows
off-center tuning from 435-446 Hz in 1 Hz increments, and a tilt slot
in the back of the tuner so it can be propped up for easy viewing. For more information,
