I think most or all instruments need tuning. Wind instruments need tuning because the sound can be sharp or flat. If you're playing in a band or ensemble, it sounds a lot better if all of the instruments are tuned. That way, the notes sound the same. If you have heard a note and its flat played together, it probably doesn't sound good. If one of the instruments is flat, that is what that part of the music will sound like. I play the Clarinet, and we have to pull out at the barrel of the instrument if it is sharp to lengthen the instrument. If it is flat, we push the barrel in or tighten our embouchure to make the instrument shorter or fix the sound. I'm not sure if all instruments tune that way, but that's what I know. I hope this helps you. If you're playing a wind instrument, I hope you are successful! :)
The difference between tuning string instruments and wind instruments is that with string instruments, you must adjust the tension of the strings in order to tune/change the pitch. With wind instruments (most of the time), you have to pull a part of the instrument either in or out to change the pitch/tune (pulling it out would make the pitch lower, and pushing it in would make the pitch higher). For example, with a trombone, there is a tuning slide at the top that you can pull or push out. If you had a saxophone, you would have to pull out or push in on the mouthpiece. If you had a guitar (string instrument), however, there are tuning keys that you can turn to adjust the tension of the strings.
The beat frequency of two in-tune musical instruments is zero.
Native Wind Instruments
u can use a piano/keybord to tune a guitar
Wind ensembles typically tune to an A note played by the oboe before performing.
If you're talking about meterology and the weather, the instrument that measures the wind is called an Anemometer. However, in terms of musical instruments, they are plainly refered to as the Wind Instruments, but can be further divided into two groups, the Brass Instruments and the Woodwind Instruments.
They are all 'wind' instruments.
They can be, it depends on how you tune them:P
Many wind instruments are made of Brass, an alloy of copper and zinc.
In one word, wind instruments look like 'pipes'. They produce sound when air is blown into the instrument. There are wind instruments with no reeds, single reed and double reed.
Its a Tuna Fishbecause 1 the word tuna is one letter from Tune get the joke?
Flutes, harmonicas, and whistles need wind to be played. One word for wind instruments is "aerophones."(What I wrote)--------> Piccolos, too
