tuned
Set to pitch
Tuned describes something adjusted for optimal performance or reception.
A tuned instrument produces correct pitches.
A tuned radio receives a specific frequency.
A tuned engine runs efficiently.
Stay tuned means keep watching or listening.
To be tuned in is to be aware and attentive: She's really tuned in to office politics.
Tuned out is the opposite—disengaged or ignoring something.
