Korg's unique Sound Back feature is convenient for ear training
Korg's own Sound Back mode is a tuning method in which you can tune using the meter display together with a reference tone generated by the LCA-120. When you attach a contact mic such as the optional CM-100L to your instrument and connect it to the input jack of the LCA-120, the speaker will produce a reference tone that's closest to the pitch of your instrument, and the display will indicate the difference between your instrument's pitch and the reference tone. This lets you tune using both visually and aurally for greater accuracy, and efficiency.

Sound Out function using a reference tone
The LCA-120 contains a reference tone with a four-octave range of C2 (65.41 Hz)--C6 (1046.50 Hz). Since this allows you to tune while listening to a reference tone produced from the built-in speaker, its ideal when two or more musicians need to tune simultaneously. There's also a headphone jack with volume control, so you can tune without disturbing others.

Programmable temperament
In addition to equal temperament, the LCA-120 gives you the option to program your own temperament. You can specify the desired pitch for each of the eighty-eight notes from A0 to C8, and recall a frequently-used temperament at a touch.

Sound Level Meter for practicing dynamics
The volume of your instrument is shown graphically in the volume meter as well as numerically (00--99). This provides a convenient way to practice maintaining a consistent volume, or to practice gradually increasing or decreasing your volume over a sustained note. The Sound Level Meter mode can be used simultaneously with the tuning functionality.
