Seems to be a neat little tuner.

Wow.  I didn't think there was any room for improvement over the boss TU-2... I mean a tuner is a tuner, right?

But this is a real innovation and it looks really useful.  Also quite impressive technology!  I can't wait to buy one, rip it open, and see what's inside. 
:rock-on:

I'm not sure if this is a wind up or not, but if it is true, whilst I'm all for developments in technology etc, I kinda don't see the point of it.  I like the idea of 'snapshot' of the whole guitar tuning, but you can still only actually tune one string at a time cos thats how many hands you've got.
I can't believe it saves you much time over a regular tuner?

Just my thoughts.  :dontknow:

:icon_thumright:

Sorry - what is a "wind up"? English is not my native language.

The snapshot tells if only one string - e.g. the b-string needs tuning and you're done. On "old" tuners you go through each string separately. Although you won't save oceans of time - you'll save some. Anyway it seems to have a marvellous fast tracking.

I like the idea. I've thought about this kind of thing before, but wasn't sure if it was possible. I guess it is.

 

[Super Turbo Deluxe Custom]

That is neat.

A wind up, mean to play a little joke....  :icon_thumright:

Thanks. But I can assure you this is not a joke. I got info from 2 "test-players" on this pedal.

 

[Volitions Advocate]

thats cool and all, but what you play in tunings other than standard and standard flat?

Brian Jones? I thought he died in a swimming pool!  :icon_jokercolor:

 

[Death by Uberschall]

I'll keep my Pitch Black and spend money else where.  :icon_thumright:

 

[D-rock]

wow! i love my boss tu-2 tuner but that is a really great idea...excited to check it out for real

From what I heard alternative tunings is also an option.

The should be in stores here in Denmark late February.

Seems like a slightly better tuner than we are all using now, I don't see how it's especially good for open tunings though - you already know what strings to re-tune, and you only have two hands. Sorry to be a killjoy, I just don't think this tuner is going to bring out any hidden hendrixes (Hendrii?)

I am anxious to hear a review from the first Warmothian who pulls the trigger on one...  :hello2:

The plural of Hendrix is Hendrices.

Who said it was - especially good - for open tunings?

I for one are not looking out for another Hendrix and I do not think any gadget will do that job (thank god). If we can get more guitars to be in tune more of the time I settle for that.

I do not think that if you already have good functioning tuner, that you'll have to make a switch just to be trendy. But if you are in the market for a (new) tuner - this one seems to be a top contender.

I think I'll stick with my Peterson strobe

 

[Alfang]

I like what I see in this tuner and heres why,  Just guessing, if that tuner is able to see the individual notes in all the mishmash goings on in a chord,

I would think that it would be very stable and accurate when trying to tune one string, ie setting intonation.
