It is an oscillator with a wide electronic tuning range.

That would be very difficult without electronic tuning.

The middle octave is usually tuned first, either by ear, or using some sort of electronic tuning device.

Even with electronic tuning instruments, tuning remains an artistic and creative task.

The results of this "master tuning" are then stored on an electronic tuning device.

There are also electronic tuning devices.

From the folds of her garments she had pulled a small device that looked somewhat like a small electronic tuning fork.

In practice the orchestras tune to a note given out by the oboe, and many oboists use an electronic tuning device.

He does not mention that many modern television sets have electronic tuning, which, when the set is switched on, automatically selects BBC1.

In general, despite the relative ease of electronic tuning with organic catalysts, chemists have not yet reached a useful understanding of these modifications.

Perhaps the most controversial feature of electronic tuning is its ability to help a tuner change a piano's tuning, also known as its temperament, with ease.

The DC bias on the drift tube may be adjusted to alter the transit time through it, thus allowing some electronic tuning of the oscillating frequency.

Accu-Tuner is the invention of Albert Sanderson, a physicist in Chelmsford, Mass., who has been creating electronic tuning devices since 1973.

(He held an index finger straight up, and moved it slightly to the right and left, like a bubble in a carpenter's level, or an electronic tuning meter.)

A later method used a potentiometer supplying a variable voltage to varactor diodes in the local oscillator and tank circuits of front end tuner, for electronic tuning.

Common tools for tuning pianos include the tuning hammer or lever, a variety of mutes, and a tuning fork or electronic tuning device.

On-board electronic tuning, availability, uniformity, and frugal costs facilitated performances by guitar ensembles like Robert Fripp's Guitar Craft students.

Some tuners use pure aural techniques while more and more experienced tuners use electronic tuning devices combined with aural skills to achieve precise and reproducible results.

Alternatively, if an electronic tuning device is used, the temperament step is skipped, and the tuner may tune many or all of the notes directly with the tuning device.

(1991) Tuning: containing the perfection of eighteenth-century temperament, the lost art of nineteenth-century temperament, and the science of equal-temperament, complete with instructions for aural and electronic tuning.

A tuning fork or electronic tuning device may be used as a reference pitch, though in ensemble rehearsals often a piano is used (as its pitch cannot be adjusted for each rehearsal).

James Tenney, amongst others, preferred to combine JI ratios with cents deviations from the equal tempered pitches, indicated in a legend or directly in the score, allowing performers to readily use electronic tuning devices if desired.

The electronic tuning range of the reflex klystron is usually referred to as the variation in frequency between half power points-the points in the oscillating mode where the power output is half the maximum output in the mode.

A cable converter box or television converter box is an electronic tuning device that transposes/converts any of the available channels from a cable television service to an analog RF signal on a single channel, usually VHF channel 3 or 4.
