Chromatic Tuner

Bippity-bappity-bumpity-boo!




The Doyen of tuning realised what a mistake they made with going from Top-Jacks to sidling up to the ol' paradigm of doom —
at last, TOP JACKS again. Well, sorta...

Well, Peterson is 2/3 the way there, now.

9V-barrel jack on the side kind of defeats the purpose of top-jacks. Would've been better to have the USB port on the side, IMnotsoHO, BUT at least the USB-C port can also be used to power the pedal. Can this possibly replace my beloved Turbo unit?


Just yet another reason an arduino/raspberry/whatever DIY-TUNER would be fanfreq'n'tasty.
I have the StroboStomp HD, and I'm pretty happy with it...
 
You could rehouse this little guy in a 125B. Tayda’s new shape hole cutting works incredibly, maybe just jb-weld this unit in, and wire up the jacks. Btw, this is the first I’ve seen this little tuner, so I can’t say for sure how accurate or how well it works.



Unless you were to design the hardware circuit and code, I don’t think this would be any less DIY-ethos than a plug&play diy module if such a thing existed.

FWIW, the consensus on TGP is that the Pedaltrain SST is terrible, comnplete garbage.
 
So today I just bought/received the tuner in Mentaltossflycoon's post #8. It's a different name, but same-same.
Gonna rehouse it with TOP JACKS!

Last night, however, I came across this thread over on DIYSB — don't know how I missed it before, or maybe I saw it but it was too much and too beyond my abilities, maybe it still is...

In case the link doesn't work, 'cause membership/password... the thread title is "Some one…Help us with a tuner project, please"
Thread has some potentially very interesting URLs within it:
https://www1.elfa.se/data1/wwwroot/assets/datasheets/DEM16223SYHPY_Datasheet_EN.PDF PDF

I say potentially 'cause I haven't had time, myself, to explore any of the links above and get a dead-link download/be infected malware etc.


Then there's the Tube Tuner PPCB Wish List thread:
Which would be ideal. Especially if the display is Nixie-based.

FbF was looking for a tuner w/ Metronome here:




Okay, band rehearsal time, I mean it. Gotta go blow. Stop messing on the forum here and pretend I can read music...
