tc electronic PolyTune 3 Tuner/Buffer 5-stars Reviews

a must pedal in your borad

very simple and visual, easy to get standard tuning or drop.

Does the job

I use this one on my bass pedalboard, first in the chain. It does the job very well. I have the buffer on, although don't hear any difference between it on and off. I suppose that's a good thing - no signal loss. Recommended.

Best tuner in the market?

If you are looking for a cheap, reliable and useful tuner pedal don't look elsewhere. The new TC Electronic PolyTune is a major improvement. Not only does it feature a high quality buffer, this pedal tracks and tunes accurately. You can strum all your guitar strings at the same time and find out which ones are out of tune in an instant. On a live situation where you have to tune fast in between songs or in between parts, this is specially useful. I have been using the PolyTune family of tuners since the first model came out and I can say it is the best tuner I have ever used. Thank you for the product TC!

Nice

Good tuner, but there is a slight unevenness in the coverage on the right.

The best tuner you will ever need

Love it, its amazing. This is a game changer for tuners.

I love the different modes, it takes a bit of time to understand how the different types work, once you get a hang of it, it will be your best friend at any gig. Must have for every gigging musician!

One of the Best Tuners on market if not the Best.

1. Bass/Guitar Mode

2. 2 Tuner Modes

3. Multiple Note Set ups for Guitar/Bass

4. Buffer (two effect in one)

5. Programable switch set up (Buffer On/Off, Tunner On/Off, Buffer-Tunner On/Off)

It tunes the guitar.

It does indeed tune the guitar. Plus it will save you one 9V center negative port from your PSU since you can connect another pedal to it.

I can use it without glasses since the tuner is quite bright and display is big enough.

the best tuner i ever had

Most accurate tuner in the market

This tuner is worth it

Perfect

I think this probably the best one on the market.

Reliable, accurate, consistent.

Great Tuner

I use this as both a tuner and a buffer at the front of my pedalboard.

It's an easy to use tuner that has a killswitch, which is handy if you were playing live so you can tune silently. The buffer in the pedal is also really solid, but if you prefer a true bypass pedal then you have that option with this pedal.

The only negative for this pedal is the fact that because this pedal is so white it gets dirty easily.

Great tuner!

Great quality and functional tuner with a lot of presets and features. I read that some users had to do a firmware update in order to get access to other tuning presets than standard and drop D. However, the unit came with all different kinds of presets already so it was not necessary in my case.

Excellent tuner

The Polytune feature is great for quickly checking every string simultaneously. The tuner is accurate and the sensitivity is just right for my liking. Build is robust and just as road-worthy as any other solid metal pedal. Good for gigging musicians and for studio use, as it will likely last for years and years.

Price is a bit steep for just a tuner, but considering it's likely to be a once-in-a-lifetime investment, it is worth the cost.

tc electronic PolyTune 3 Tuner/Buffer

Excellent product. Very well done TC Electronic. Totally recommended

Smart tuning box

Seeing all the strings at once saves you time not checking those strings which are still in tune.

Works well, looks great, worth the money

10 months in use - 0 trouble with it.

Polyphonic tuner feature looks interesting, but I couldnt bring myself to start use it. Use it as a usual tuner, its great for such scenario.

Extra power output is awesome - I can use 1 power supply for two pedals.

I forgot to unplug the power supply from my polytune and digitech drop pedals for at least 2 days once - digitech is dead, polytune works perfect. So, my poor attention test is passed by TC Electronics PolyTune 100%!

Awesome LED-colors, looks really good.

Amazing!

It has excellent quality with magnificent features I have no idea how I lived without it

great tuner

A must-have on any pedalboard.

Polyphonic mode is handy, but beware that it's not as accurate. I mostly use it to quickly see wich strings are out of tune, and then I tune the strings individually. If you want super accurate tuning it has a strobe mode too.

+ bright display, easy to read on stage

+ bonafide buffer built-in (switchable to true bypass)

+ good value considering the buffer alone costs €55

- polyphonic mode is not very accurate (the other modes are)

very good tuner

very good, plenty of options, precise and dynamic. Robust.

Have not test the buffer so far.

Overall good quality (inside could be painted ?)

Really Good Tuner!!!

Tunes my 5 string bass and electric guitar easily.

Display is clear.

The capo tunings are handy.
