If you are considering purchasing a violin, viola
or cello tuner, you may also want to consider a chromatic tuner. A
chromatic tuner will tune to any note including sharps and flats. Its tuning
range on most models is almost as wide as all the notes on the piano. Therefore,
a single chromatic tuner will tune virtually any instrument. Since a chromatic tuner can recognize every note, it has also been used
for practicing intonation. This is
done is by playing a note and see it is in-tune by checking against the tuner.
Hence a tuner makes a very good tool for a string instrument player. To find out more about chromatic tuners, please click here:

A
violin, viola or cello tuner can recognize only the note of the 4 strings on the
instrument (Violin:E-A-D-G, Viola/Cello:A-D-G-C). Since it is built
specifically for tuning these string instruments, it is very easy to use and
tuning the 4 strings are very quick.
