TC Electronic PolyTune 3 Ultra-Compact Tuner Pedal with Polyphonic Tuning, Built-In Buffer, and Bright LED Display

Whenever people ask what the best tuner is, my answer is always polytune. Others have other answers but there is no other pedal that is as accurate, fast and has the polytune feature. To even get close, you need to spend double the money, so nothing else has the value. On top of that, this is a mini pedal so fits on your board without taking up too much room. And it has a nice display that's easy to see even at a murky gig.

Ive had this for 4 weeks now and works super well! Very bright screen and highly accurate for strobe mode. I haven't worked out using the custom tunings yet though... I am using it with an isolated power supply and it adds no noticeable noise to my signal chain Its very small so fits easy on my board and feels like a strong shasis that shoud last at least a few years. Good value for money!

Very cool and very effective. The Polytune feature is perfect for identifying a dodgy string quickly, and the screen is bright enough for any environment. Top quality product

Impressed with this as is easy to use and a nice size that fits my board well and does not take up too much space. Just make sure you put it first in thd chain.

Yeah it's a fantastic bit of kit, totally glad I bought it. I'd been using some cheap Chinese brand tuner that worked great, almost perfect, but I wanted a nice one that I knew was going to be good for my chain, quality wise for sound and performance of my other pedals etc I like the buffer in this and the extra features to tune without muting, I don't use that but I like the option and I may do in future, it's nice looking, I'd like the mini size version though, it's not particularly big I'm just tight for space lol but I like it's visibility for stage use, screen easy to read colours etc useful. I'm pleased as it's a good brand reliable and I'm confident in the quality of my signal using it too! I think it's cheap too tbh for what it is!

Turned up on time, great little tuner, unfortunately, like other reviews I've seen, this was not a new item and had scuffs and scratches on the screen and no quick start guide in the box, it's a shame on the one hand as it really is a nice bit of kit, but on the other hand having to return it gave me the opportunity to go for it's big brother, the Polytune 3 which wobbles about less on the peddle board and has a couple of extra features and was only £10 more.

Accurate well made tuner. The game changer for me was that a pp3 9v battery can be fitted inside easily by removing 1 large screw. So you don't need a 9volt power pack adapter.

Have wanted one of these for ages, and really glad I splurged. The polyphonic tuning is a really nice feature, but - as you'd expect - it's your rough guide and it takes a bit of getting used to. The display is super clear and it's one of those devices that just becomes super intuitive to use very quickly. Be careful you don't put it in Drop D tuning by mistake and then wonder why the bass E readout is wrong!

Bought it used and it was in great condition, like new.

The way it shows the results is so fast and very responsive and accurate. The buffer in it is very useful.

Après avoir longtemps hésité entre le Boss TU-3 (que je ne trouve pas joli) et le Korg pitch black dont j’étais un peu sceptique concernant la lisibilité et l’utilisation d’une pile pour mémoriser les réglages, j’ai fini par opter pour le polytune pour différents points : - excellente lisibilité, que ce soit dans le noir, ou en plein soleil - très bonne réactivité, y compris sur le Si grave de ma basse 5 cordes (c’était LE critère principal pour moi), et ce quel que soit les réglages du préampli intégré (avec les basses à +12dB, certains accordeurs ont du mal...) Le tout dans un boîtier très propre et discret. Le footswitch est absolument silencieux. J'ai testé le mode "always on", mais je n’aime pas trop le fait qu’il est très difficile de savoir si on est muté ou pas... (pas vu d’indicateur sur l’écran ....) Du coup je l‘utilise en mode standard (on = muté + accordage , off = non muté, et accordage éteint). Ou bien en bout de chaîne (même si c’est peu recommandé, mais à la basse on n’utilise pas beaucoup d’effets.. voire aucun ;)), sur la sortie "tuner out" de mon ampli : je peux le laisser allumé tout le temps, mais je perds la fonction de mute du coup. Pas grave, j’ai une autre pédale pour ça. Les différents modes d’affichage sont comme suit : accordeur standard B pour basse ou G pour guitare (ça n’a d’intérêt que pour le polytune, que je n’utilise pratiquement pas), chacun avec deux modes : - un standard, où il faut amener la barre au centre de l’écran, avec les leds gauche et droite qui s’allument de concert quand on est accordé - un stroboscopique que j’aime beaucoup moins, qui se déplace constamment dans un sens ou l’autre selon qu’on est accordé trop haut ou trop bas, et devient immobile quand on est juste. Il est plus précis. le mode polytune n’a pas beaucoup d’intérêt, il peut parfois montrer certaines cordes désaccordées alors que le contrôle corde par corde ne montre aucun écart... Bon, il fait le job pour un contrôle vite fait avant d’attaquer un boeuf avec ses potes. Bref, 5 étoiles pour la simplicité du produit, la qualité de finition, le repiquage de l’alimentation (inutile dans mon cas), et la lisibilité de l’écran surtout pour moi qui suis daltonien, et surtout pour la précision et rapidité d’accordage sur les notes depuis l’octave 0 (le Si grave de ma basse 5 cordes...)

Accordate preciso e affidabilissimo, lo uso in tutte le situazioni e non perde mai un colpo

Werkt uitstekend. Top pedaal
