TUNER

[Sean S]

Me too - ever since I tuned up one day - tuner said everything was fine. Started playing - the A string sounded way off. Check it again, tuner says fine. Play it again - sounds off. It wasn't until I cranked the string about a half turn up, then down that the string sounded fine - tuner still said it was fine.

I know this makes zero logical sense but it spooked me and now I always do my first tuning so I can hear it. Subsequent mid performance tunings I do silent.

Are you running it off a battery or power supply? I could be that the battery is/was dying.

I have a strobostomp 2 which I really like. It doubles as a DI as well, so double value for me. Very accurate, easy to use, and the big backlit LCD is nice!

Nope, Zoom B2.1u running off AC power cord.

I use a Line 6 BassPODXTLive to tune at gigs but got this for my 17 year old son to use(I use it for setups):

Excellent shrunken version of the big ones plus a DI.

i just traded in my planet waves tuner pedal for a korg pitch black... i am liking it much more so far.... plus i dont get that high pitched squeal in the background when im tuning

You can't go wrong with a Boss TU-2. The things built like a tank! Its never made me regret getting it. I have heard good things about the Planet Waves tuner also...

I'll be selling off my DT-10 to fund a transfer to the Pitch Black somewhat sadly, but due to a complete pedalboard reworking, the DT-10 had to be removed while I can fit the Pitch Black due to it's smaller housing.
