Nice price on the Fender. I was also looking into a rack tuner but decided against using up that space in the rack for something.
I use a Boss TU-2 pedal (which mutes when pressed) and also have a Korg GT-3 hand held.
Do a search, there are a few recent threads about this already.

The Behr blows (had it). Tracks slow if at all below E. Fender is "OK" but not great. Korg DTR-1000 is best...

+1

This is my experience too. This was the latest, and probably last peice of behringer kit i got.

I tune my bass to DBCF and the tuner track so slowly on the two lowest strings that i always tune the C with the tuner and then tune the rest of the strings by ear.

eh.... what!

Oh i screwed up, thats supposed to be (thickest string first)
DGCF got one wrong.
Every string drops down two halfnotes (or halftones im not sure what its called in english)

Does that answer your question?

I am currently running it from the tuner out on my Eden, and i have tried with really high and low gain settings and it seems it works best with a lower gain setting does really no difference. It worked even worse when i used it with the input on the front.

Id like to say thank you to everyone who helped me make my decision. I have decided on the Fender tuner as I feel the price is decent and Ive read good things about it. Thank you for convincing me to not go with the Behringer. The main reason why is I play death metal and I tune low, and if that tuner cant handle it Id rather pay extra to get one that can. Thanks again.

Question Fender RT-1000 Rack Tuner

Hi, I've been reading a few reviews on the RT-1000 but was wondering if the large "F" in the centre illuminates when correcting tuning has been reached. Is that right? How is it actually powered: kettle lead, fixed lead or phantom via my amp? Yeah I'll be setting it down on my amp, not in a rack.

Hope someone can help me by 3pm today because I'm hoping to buy it then

Thank's everyone.
