Korg Pitchblack "+"

Sign in to disble this ad
I got a Korg Pitchblack+ as a gift, and it’s a very nice pedal tuner.

It has the capability of storing different tuning programs on two separate channels. On one I have the normal chromatic tuning program.

On the other I would like to have a program to flat-tune my 5-string (Bb, Eb, Ab, Db, Gb). On my Boss TU-2 that would mean just tuning to the little “b” symbol on the dial, instead of the natural. On the +, I’m not sure how to program that. I can easily set it flat in half-step increments, and I thought it should simply be ½ step flat, but at practice it was brought to my attention that I was embarrassingly wrong.

Does anyone have any advice, especially people who have used the Pitchblack+ or something similar? I never imagined a tuner pedal would give me any trouble, but here I am.

Man, I gotta get into some theory books in the worst way.

Edited to ask a question, rather than post a new thread. So, bump.

D'oh. Nevermind, I think I can figure it out.

Even if not, I could always just use the true note names I'm tuning to.

Later, I'll have to try to delete this thread. I'm just having a strange, unfocused day. My appologies.

They have different tunings built in. Check the manual. I believe mode "0" starts with A=440 and it changes from there.
