Tuning (tuning) Violin

@ Biola be in tala (distem) with the help of keyboard psr 2100 (or other type).

@ Nada G (G strings) on the violin should sound the same sound with the tone G as shown on the keyboard. This applies to the three other strings (D, A and E).

@ Tuning peg in the round (Figure 1) forward: to raise the tone (tighten the strings), back: to lower the tone (loosen the strings).

@ Tighten the tuning peg with a given bit of pressure (boost into), so that is not easy to loose.

@ Be careful when turning the tuning peg, especially for the violin that cost under 1 million (personal experience, as my own violin), tuning peg is easily broken, due to the quality of the wood used is less well (Figure 2). But can be replaced, because these parts are sold in music stores.

* Mechanical tuning the violin tuning different techniques on the guitar. Guitar using a system like bolts and nuts, while the violin, no.

@ So, on violin, tuning pegs tightened slowly, one after the other as a whole, do not step on the gas only play on one string only directly to the desired tone.

Overall mean:

While turning the tuning peg, did play "a little" for "little" at all tuning peg.
Starting from G strings (for example): turn "a little", then following (for example) the E string is also "a bit", and so on until it reaches the appropriate tuning.
Avoid playing / tuning peg tightening (tuning) directly to achieve the right tone for the strings alone, or. . .
Avoid tightening the strings only (eg only G strings) until it reaches the actual tone (tone G). This can cause your violin strings break, especially if the quality of the strings arguably ugly. Not that quality strings can be treated arbitrarily
* Caption "bit" by "a little" = distance between the round 1 s / d 5 milli.

@ Sometimes, tune using the tuning peg will instantly get the right sound / fit, if not, then the tuning is done by using the fine tuning (Figure 3).

@ Fine tunging in turn slowly to the right to raise the tone or to the left to lower the tone so that it can generate the appropriate tuning.

@ For accurate tuning, you should use digital tuning tools (digital tuner) as shown below. There are many types of digital tuner, if our ears are "used to", then we can use a violin pitch pipe.
