General

The Snark SN-8 is a clip-on tuning device that is suited for several instruments. It uses a piezo pickup to accurately pick up vibrations from your guitar, bass guitar, violin, or other instrument As it picks up vibrations instead of sound, you can also use the Snark SN-8 in noisy environments. The Snark SN-8's frequency range makes it suitable for a wide range of instruments. Compared to earlier Snark models, this version has a more legible display and a slightly quicker and more accurate tuning process.

Options

The Snark SN-8 is a chromatic tuner and features a pitch calibration function that allows you to adjust the reference frequency (standard at 440 Hz) between 415 and 466 Hz. It is this combination that makes it suitable for a plethora of musical instruments. As long as the instruments vibrates enough for the SN-8 to pick it up, you can use this Snark to tune it. The built-in metronome with Tap Tempo function is a practical addition for practising new songs or sections.

Attaching and display

Snark tuners feature a Stay Put clamp that makes sure it stays in place while you're playing. As the display can be rotated 360 degrees, you can place it on the front or on the back of the headstock, making the SN-8 suitable for both left and right-handed players. The display is full colour and clearly backlit so you can also use it on dark stages or by the camp fire. To make sure that the SN-8 is safe during transport, it comes in a practical bag.

Ik gebruik hem voor mijn hoorn om tijdens het oefenen een referentie te hebben waar ik zit qua toon. Erg handig, ik kan hem in een ooghoek zien terwijl ik speel en hij reageert erg snel!

Helemaal top en al helemaal voor dat geld!!

Had voorheen de voorloper, de SN-1 en ik had al niet verwacht dat er veel verbeterd kon worden, maar hij is sneller, nauwkeuriger en ik ben heel blij met de kleur. Bax biedt de Snark aan voor een erg betaalbare prijs, dit is 100% zijn geld waard. Prettig op feestjes zodat je gewoon kan stemmen terwijl feestgangers naar elkaar blijven schreeuwen. Aanrader voor iedereen!

Super goede tuner. Herkent snel de desbetreffende snaar en werkt, in tegenstelling tot de meeste tuners, d.m.v. trillingen waardoor u uw instrument ook kan stemmen in luidruchtige ruimtes. Top product.

Top product, herkent zéér snel de snaren die je aanraakt. Zelfs als je op een strat met 0.11 snaren zonder plectrum de hoge E aanslaat, herkent ie 'm nog.

Prachtig 'schattig' dingetje, mijn vriendin noemt hem 'bolletje', ik noem 'm 'snarkie'. We hebben hem in de familie opgenomen. :-)

Ik heb hem gekocht voor het stemmen van mijn elektrische gitaar. Is makkelijk te plaatsen op de kop van je gitaar en laat snel en duidelijk zien of je snaren goed gestemd zijn. Het scherm is erg duidelijk door de sterke en heldere kleuren. Ik had 5 sterren gegeven als er een beter hoesje of doosje bij had gezeten om hem in op te bergen, want het afgebeelde zakje stelt weinig voor.

Strakke tuner, secuur, goed afleesbaar en op alle plekken op de headstock van mijn bassen vast te klemmen. Aanrader!

Heel goede tuner, werkt snel en accuraat. Ik heb diverse clip on tuners gebruikt, en voor gitaar werken ze meestal goed, maar voor bas vaak niet. Vaak pakken ze je lage snaren niet, of haperen ze heel erg.
De Snark leest zowel bij bas als bij gitaar alle snaren meteen uit. Je kunt meteen stemmen. Snel en goed.
