Triple up Tuning Test

All 3 pedals receive the exact same signal simultaneously via a 3-way slit-cable.

Let's see which is faster!

Can the polytune tune your guitar in D? Or lower ?

[tcelectronic]

@Lazzari89 Our website says: "If you are a guitarist that likes to play at a different pitch than standard, this is your go-to pedal, allowing for dropped tunings from E-flat all the way down to B. Whatever your pitch or tuning, PolyTune is a sure-fire way to be spot-on, with an accuracy of just plus/minus 1cent." Hope it helped. :)

Does the PolyTune have a mute function for when you switch it on?

[tcelectronic]

@EvileOL Yes.

Hi there!

I have the Polytune but I have a problem... I have the Boss FV500L Volume pedal that has the tuner out... Does the Polytune works with it? I´ve tried everything but it seems it doesn´t work... I´ve pluged the tuner out from the volume pedal to the input of the Polytune but it didn´t worked...

Can you help? Thanks!

@zmaels I can't see why this shouldn't work - are you sure the 'tuner out' output is working properly?

"And now, all the strings at the same time...

TU-2: Uhhh....e?

PolyTune: =D

Pitchblack: ...Fuck this shit."

xD

pitchblack and polytune are pretty even until you do all of the strings. i own a polytune and i really like it!

@cris06morbidkarma thank u very much! cheers!!

[cris06morbidkarma]

@zeronoton - The Korg Pitchblack will be on mute one you activate it. The accuracy is great as well. Hope that helped. Cheers!

I prefer the BOSS. It has a great Buffer, too!

[zeronoton]

hey!! let me ask you a question! Your answer would be really helpful! Do all 3 pedals have a mute function for when you switch these on ?? specially I am asking for Korg! I think that it is not nice to play live and the audience hear me tuning the strings :) thank you!!

[deckstor1]

WOW awesome! i'm definitely gonna get the Korg Pitchblack!

[poneyboy23]

I tried the Polycom and it's not so great. In multi string mode, it's not even worth using. In single string mode, it's not very accurate, no better than the Boss. For the cost of a Boss, get a Turbo Tuner strobe tuner. Best tuner in the world.

Boss everytime - by far the most accurate of the 3 and so what it doesn't do all the strings at once... it'll survive 10 times longer!

I own both the PitchBlack and PolyTune. The TC has a delay when switching between poly and single notes and a pitch discrepancy between the two tunings. When I strum the chord (not aggressively) it says I'm in tune, but when I check the individual strings, they're always slightly sharp... I'm still using the PitchBlack on my main pedalboard, but I will be getting the TT ST-200 soon. PolyTune is unbeatable for live/stage use, but you need accuracy in the studio.
