(More customer reviews)The product comes with the most important accessories (earbud, contact microphone) and has a very easy to understand interface. The functions are all very useful and the built in speaker is loud and very clear (volume adjustable). It has a better built in metronome than I've used on some stand alone metronome units. As for the pitch training function it was intended for, it has positives and negatives...
The pitch recognition and playback does actually work as described most of the time. However, you have to be very close to the pitch for it to play the correct pitch back, which is odd since you can see on screen that it definitely recognizes what note it hears you being closest to. So it doesn't help much more than a standard digital tuner if your intonation is significantly off (as mine sometimes is) and is best suited for fine tuning an already good sense of pitch/finger position. Another problem though is that, at least with the violin, it picks up a lot of overtones and sometimes treats those as the recognized pitch. So for instance you might be playing an open D but the tuner is playing back a high G or A to you. The speed of response in pitch recognition varies a lot. Occasionally it will respond wonderfully quick, giving you a note almost simultaneously with your attack...other times it seems to take a few seconds to respond. I'm not sure what factors are causing this for me, it could be other variables such as ambient noise, etc.
I give this 4 stars instead of 3 for the number of helpful functions this has in one unit. For the price it's actually very handy and a good value for beginner players.
