Does You Tuner not show you half step pitch? I thought Korg Tuners have a little button called "flat", so you push it and tune like you did before.

I have a korg tuner but I've never played with the buttons on it so It's possible ZakkWylde can be right about that You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick.

I have that tuner. If you look at the picture on the Amazon page, the note letter's on the upper right side of the display. If you take that A and start tuning down, the 'needle' starts moving to the left. Eventually, the A will change to Ab and the needle will flip to the right side of the meter. Keep tuning down til it sits in the middle position again. You are at GuitarMasterClass.net Don't miss today's free lick. Plus all our lessons are packed with free content!

One "b" will be shown in the display. Now you tune as usual i.e hit the E string and when in tune the display will show "E" (not Eb) Same thing is you want to tune down a full step, you press "b" two times "bb" should be shown in the display. Hit the E string and when in tune the display will show "E" (not D) So everytime you should get E B G D A E no matter how much you tune down. If that helps, mayby you got another Korg tuner than me.
