Looks like the right time to buy a new tuner pedal. Check this out!

You can still only tune 1 string at a time. The best feature is the ambient light sensor that dims/brightens the LED's when you're indoors or outdoors.

Looks good to me!

Polyphonic looks really cool. It will allow you to see how the effects of tuning one string change the others. With a Strat type floating bridge, or a weak neck, this is quite a problem. You might be able to figure out how to compensate the string you are tuning, based on what happens as you tune subsequent strings.

It also looks like it would be much faster to tune. You wouldn't have to check every string. You could just address the one that is out of tune. I'm definitely going to get one if it is accurate enough.

I wonder how accurate it is compared to strobe technology?

I like it very much, when is going to be available?

Just got an e-mail from MF. Looks like they're available on preorder. Some people speculated that the price is near $200. It's actually only $100 (even though I still think $100 for a tuner in general is ridiculous).

Just read about these and I'm really interested. 100 bucks sounds about on par with everyone else. Maybe time to retire the old tu2 to the b-string board.

Poly is .5
Turbo Tuner is .02

Poly is .5
Turbo Tuner is .02

How about the PitchBlak?

pitchblack and the new TU-3 are +/- 1 cent, so .5 cents is pretty damn good. (nowhere near the turbo, but pretty damn good.)

+1 to the floating bridge thing, which seems to confuse some people. this thing could really help folks get a grasp on what actually happens to the other strings when tuning.

$100 is too much? There's way more engineering in one of those than a TS9 which routinely sells for $99

 

[tinkercity]

This looks really cool. Deal maker for me is that it's got a 9volt out to power the extra pedal on my board! That was the deal breaker to replace my Strobostomp with the Turbo tuner...

 

[In Tune]

I just love an IN TUNE guitar.......

Looks really cool.
