PlanetWaves pedal tuner

Friends!

to all those who use it. What are the pros and cons of the tuner?
I did like to get one real soon.

Pardon me if I sound stupid, but what does it do?

 

[suckasucks]

uh... tunes?

to dhalif, how will the leds light up when a note is tuned exactly to pitch?

 

[nysk]

isit possible to TBP mod it?

 

[dhalif]

u can choose between the SWEEP mode and the STROBE mode.. in sweep mode.. it does the same thing as any other tuners.. when ur flat led reds on to the left and if sharp led reds on to right.. for STROBE mode.. if ur flat leds reds anti clockwise and will slow down as u get nearer to the perfect p itch.. and will stop eventually and the green lights up. vice versa on sharp notes.. the rotary LED is damn cool btw..

CHeers!

where is the AC input on the tuner?

 

[dhalif]

i havent tried it.. but i read that this pedal also serves as another extension power out source. so there is 9v in and 9v out of the top of the pedal.. plus the pedal is built like a really really hard BRICK. quite heavy too.. even without battery lol

i'll stick to DT10

I read it doesn't have an indicator to indicate whether its on or off.. this is an oversight which planetwaves acknowledged..

best wait for the updated version..

 

[kentheman2000]

No indicator not a big problem. It's just a step away anyway... when u play, got light means on dah!

 

[cheyen]

i have one,..
The most useful thing I ever bought.

the cons,......damn expensive for a tuner,...

 

[shyamalan]

expensive meh haha. I think its pretty cheap since there are more expensive ones on the market.

I have one and like it bt this pedal does generate a bit of a buzzin noise when u tune and u have ur dist/OD channel/pedal on....but its very soft unless u are really anal then it isnt much of a issue :lol:

[suckasucks]

its probably the cheapest tuner on the market. hardwired bypass too unlike the boss. smaller than the korg and peterson.

 

[dhalif]

bro indicator - red led will flash every second on the pedal when its switched on. when its switched off.. nothing.

 

[shyamalan]

k thanks dhalif.

very few people seem to use it.
