A multimeter that can read frequencies over 50hz

[_aj666]

So I finally got my flintlock flanger up and running and would like to start calibrating, but it seems like my multimeter doesn't exceed 50hz without overloading and not showing anything. Is there a particular DMM you're using that you could recommend for this?

I bought the Proster vc97 for the Flintlock. I checked Amazon, they don't have that model anymore but they have others. Just verify the frequency specs, here are the specs from the VC97: 100Hz/1kHz/10kHz/100kHz/1MHz/30MHz, +/- (0.5%+4).

I had the same issue too. I tuned it by ear. It sounds great, but it does make me wonder if it would sound greater if properly tuned….

I was told that the Fluke has a model that will measure the frequency.

Fluke 87V?

If you can get someone else to buy it for ya.

I use that one, and I was able to calibrate my flange pedal with it (that needs to measure 500khz)

So you were able to calibrate your flintlock with this one? If so I'll throw it in the cart now.

It was an effects layout pocket comb (fl-9 based). .

I bought a cheap Aneng M108. It helped me calibrate my flintlock so far. Hasn’t helped me figure out the audio issues…

I've got that one, and it doesn't get to where I need it for some reason

My Fluke 179 is rated to 100kHz. Works great for audio, and I have a dedicated Fluke frequency meter if I need to go higher.

This is the one I ended up going with. Seems like it gets the ranges needed, plus it's in line with the proster and VC97 that is recommended. Just seems like it's branded differently.
