It says it does, I went back and read it and it clearly states all instruments.I do know this is 3rd I've had, keep giving them away to kids, and finally have my own again. Very easy to use, and tune with.

Very sorry that I can not help you. I am trying to learn to play the guitar. I have no knowledge of tuners. I saw the Snark advertised in the net and bought It at a venture.

Yes. I've used it tune a couple of pianos, my violin, and my guitar. It works great. But don't forget to push the buttons and make sure it is calibrated to 440 Hz (I made that mistake). I also bought the microphone. I think it helps to screen out background noise.

Yes it does. It works on several string instruments. You just have to scroll through them to get the violin

As the unit is designed to pick up pitch via vibration, I would assume it can be used on any stringed instrument. That being said, there are web sites available on this topic, here is one using a guitar tuner on a violin: http://www.ehow.com/how_6199235_tune-violin-guitar-tuner.html

Suzanne, I am by no means a "techie" but I think the answer is "no". The tuner works by selecting a "station" - by location (starting with continent, then country, state, city) and by genre (rock, classical, news, jazz etc). I am unaware of any method of selecting a station or mp3 stream by inputting the URL. I hope this helps. I like the product, for my purposes, which is to listen to radio around the world, without using my PC... Let me know if I can help further.Pat

It does, as long as the tuner is paired up with the device! Puts out a strong signal and allows for minimal distortion for playback! Used to have just a fm transmitter that would play my iphone through the speakers! Mpow far exceeds my old device!

If I attach it to the very bottom of the scroll on either of my 4/4s, the "high" arrow is sometimes obscured by the D peghead, otherwise it works just fine. I have used it with my 5-string banjo, mandolin and many guitars. Other than its questionable ability to "hear" the lowest notes and giving false note assignments (ubiquitous in every quartz tuner) it works as well, if not better, than any of the 7 tuners I have ever used.

Hey Chip, as long as you know what notes you want to tune to it shouldn't be a problem. The tuner uses the vibration through the instrument to tell you what your tuning is.

i have only used it on my electric guitars to this point however, it seems it should work just fine on all tuners. hope that helps.

The tuner is chromatic, which means it tunes all notes including sharps and flats, and it is a clip-on that responds to vibrations in the instrument. Any instrument you can clip it to, it will tune. Very low frequencies as in a bass guitar will not register as well, but banjo, ukellele, violin, etc. will tune fine. Even horns and woodwinds should work.

It clips on to any stringed instrument and tunes it using vibration a sensor. so not only is it work for a violin, you can use it on stage with a whole orchestra.

Yes, I've used it to tune 4, 5, and 6 string basses. The tuner is a chromatic style tuner and should handle any instrument. I use the 12th fret harmonic to tune with.

No. There was not a tuner included in the shipment; although it was pictured. I received the violin, bow, rosin, and case. Because of the quality of the violin at such a low price, and because I already had a tuner, I was not concerned about not receiving the tuner that was pictured. I think you'll find you'll be happy with the violin. And, if you don't receive the tuner with the package, there are websites that will give the pitches for the strings.

This may work for a violin but my only concern is that like an acoustic guitar it has a hollow body and that particular microphone feeds back depending on where you place it, im sure you dont want that to happen.

It can tune to lower tunings. It will not however simply detect the note. You need to push the flat button however many times and then tune. It also does not show any notes other than EADGBe. For instance if you pushed the flat button and were tuning your E string to E flat, it would still read it as if you were tuning to E and show an E note.
