Editorial Review:

Product Description:
makes this the must-have item for the guitarist or bassist. High precision and advanced functionality and sleek style make this new guitar/bass pedal tuner from Korg our most advanced yet. The Pitchblack is the same size as a compact effect unit, and features a tough aluminum die cast body that will endure hard use on the road or in the studio. While small in size, it boasts a large; easy to read LED meter with a light-emitting surface for excellent visibility in any setting from daylight, to stage light to no light as well as an extremely smooth eleven-segment LED meter that allows accurate visual tuning from any angle. With a red LED that indicates the tuner's on/off status, a large note name display, and a tuning guide that indicates whether your instrument is sharp or flat, you'll always be able to tune quickly and accurately in any situation. The pitchblack provides a tuning range of E0 (20.60 Hz) to C8 (4,186 Hz), and adjustable calibration between 436--445 Hz.

The pitchblack mutes the input signal for silent tuning, and when you're not tuning the input is passed directly to the output jack without being affected by any circuitry (True Bypass). So even if you connect the pitchblack between several of your favorite pedals, the signal will pass without going through the internal buffer amp, ensuring that the sounds you've created using your effects will not be colored in any way. The pitchblack is designed to coexist transparently with other effect pedals.
The pitchblack is designed to fit conveniently into your pedal board system. It provides a DC OUT jack that can supply power to other effect pedals when the optional AC adaptor is used. By connecting optional DC cables, you can supply up to 200 mA of power to multiple effect pedals, simplifying the power connections in your pedal board. Calibration is adjustable from 436--445 Hz A 9 VDC output jack is provided for cascading the power supply to o




Rating: - Good for working musician
Bought this Korg after losing a prior tuner after many years of gigging. Researched on several on-line boards and alot of guys recommended. Wanted something easy to use on a dark stage, tough, and not too expensive. This fits the bill: am satisfied after several months of use. The bright, highly visible read-out cannot be missed or misunderstood. That's what you want tuning in a hurry, on cluttered, dark stages. The unit is happy living in a jumbled gig bag. Battery lasts a long time. Leave ... Read More

Rating: - My 1st Stomp/Pedal Tuner ... and I love it
so far I love it! I love the accuracy and the ability to between songs "freshen-up" the tuning. Its wonderful ... and the convenience of a stomp/pedal tuner is awesome, no more unplugging and tuning through hand held.

My favorite display setting is #4 (it strobes to the center when tuned! I love it! Thanks for all your help guys. I bought it Thursday night and used it Friday night for practice and Saturday night for Open Door Worship. It was a 3 hour worship service with music throughout, ... Read More
