An analyzer includes a wavelength-dispersive X-ray spectrometer and a control unit that controls the wavelength-dispersive X-ray spectrometer, the control unit performing: processing of acquiring an analysis result of preparatory analysis performed on a specimen to be analyzed; processing of setting spectroscopic conditions for WDS analysis using the wavelength-dispersive X-ray spectrometer based on the analysis result of the preparatory analysis; and processing of performing the WDS analysis on the specimen to be analyzed under the set spectroscopic conditions.
