PolyTune is the world's first polyphonic tuner,
and a game-changing total tuning turnaround that will have
future guitarists wondering how we ever got by without
it.
It couldn't be done - until we did it.
The magic lies in a never before seen approach to tuning aimed at
speed, accuracy and ease of use. With PolyTuneTM, you simply strum
all strings on your guitar or bass at once, and it will immediately
tell you which strings need tuning! This cutting-edge tuning technology
revolutionizes the way you tune and accomplishes what has been deemed
'impossible' until now: tuning all strings simultaneously! It really
is as simple as strum - tune - rock, and this quantum leap forward
allows you to get in tune fast, and back to doing what you love: playing.
Strum - Tune - Rock
Providing an instant overview of the pitch of all your strings, PolyTuneTM
is an invaluable tool in live-settings, where it is essential to
be in tune quickly and ready to play. Crowds don't want to wait around,
they want to rock, and, let's face it, so do you. Besides live use,
this stomp box will deliver like no other in any situation where
you want to get tuning out of the way and focus on play.
Fever Pitch
Equally effective for guitar and bass, PolyTuneTM is extremely flexible
as well. The reference pitch can be set to your preference and ranges
from 435Hz to 445Hz. This guarantees you'll be able to play along
with anyone, with any instrument and in any situation.
Drop it like it's hot
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,
PolyTuneTM is a sure-fire way to be spot-on, with an accuracy of
just plus/minus 1cent.
Chromatic champion
Besides the Polyphonic tuner, PolyTuneTM has a chromatic tuner that
can hang with the best current tuning technology out there, with
an amazing 0.5 cent accuracy. But we are never satisfied with the
current norm, and added some features to make this tuner's chromatic
section stand out from the crowd.
Tuning modes
Let's start with the two separate chromatic tuning modes, which cater
to your individual preferences and needs. Needle mode is for those
that are used to the classic view on a tuner. For the people that
want a little more real-time information, we have included stream-mode,
which measures even the slightest pitch variation and instantly feeds
the info back to you via a rotating motion on the display.
Tuning Magnet
Key to both these great chromatic modes is an ultra-fast and precise
response, which is achieved via the use of the unique tuner magnet
feature. This slows down the needle once you get close to the desired
pitch, making it much easier to get the job done quickly.
MonoPoly
Whether you want to use the polyphonic tuner to get in tune, or prefer
to go the chromatic route,this pedal has you covered. PolyTuneTM
features "MonoPoly", a unique patent-pending technology
that recognizes whether you play one or more strings and instantly
replies with the appropriate poly- or monophonic tuning mode.
Total Recall
Of course, all of these amazing features would not mean a thing
if they were a pain to use or set up. So, we added some traits
to ensure this tuner is calibrated to the guitarist. Unlike most
other tuners, PolyTune stores your preferences. From pitch reference
to tuning mode, it hangs on to this information even after it is
powered down, making sure you only have to set how you want things
to happen once.The next time you power up again, it will show you
the settings, so you instantly know Everything is exactly how you
want it to be.
Tuning as it should be
PolyTune was our chance to build the ultimate tuning tool from the
ground up and finally get rid of some of the current tuner drawbacks
that guitarists run into time and time again. Tuners have been around
for some 30 odd years and we felt it was high time they got in tune
with todays guitarists.
Design is where beauty and technology meet
But besides all the spearheading features inside the tuner, we took
a long hard look at the outside as well, and pushed tuner design
to new heights in the process!
A strong display of innovation
Starting with the display, it instantly becomes clear why PolyTune
is lightyears ahead of current tuners. Guitarists that play gigs,
will no doubt recognize the nightmare of an unclear display, due
to for example bright sunlight, an overeager light technician or
a stage smoke machine gone bonkers.
PolyTune offers unprecedented visibility using an ambient light
sensor, which automatically matches the brightness of the LEDs to
its surroundings.
What is the Matrix?
PolyTuneTM features 17 LEDS which allow for a higher resolution and
the LEDs themselves are super bright and focused to ensure optimal
visibility at all times. This guarantees the most effortless tuning
experience money can buy. And as an added bonus, the 100 LED matrix
can give you information right on the display, so you won't have
to go dig for the manual mid-gig.
Spruce the juice
Battery changes are a breeze thanks to the one-screw easy access to
the battery compartment and when powered by an external 9v DC power
supply, the 9v DC out can be used to power other pedals on your board.
True Bypass
The true bypass feature ensures PolyTuneTM is only there when you need
it. It allows for your carefully sculpted tone to flow unaffected
when the pedal is bypassed and for silent tuning once engaged.
We can't make tuning fun. But we can sure make it a whole lot easier.
We want to do our part for the guitar community and truly innovate
the life of guitarists. And with PolyTuneTM's extraordinary features
and cutting-edge technology, we feel we have accomplished just that.
We are passionate guitarists ourselves and we work every single day
to make all our lives easier and more rocking. We did it for multi-effects
with G-Force, G-Major2, Nova System and G-System, we did it for stomp
boxes with the Nova series, and now PolyTuneTM is here to give tuning
a much needed kick in the A440!
