Korg PB-X TUNER

KORG's Pitchblack X chromatic guitar tuner is the ultimate solution for professional tuning control on stage in the studio. It features display and LED Meter with 4 display modes and adjustable brightness, offers high-precision tuning only +-0.1 cent tolerance, built-in just-right tuning system that facilitates intonation is can select TRUE BYPASS and ULTRA BUFFER circuits that avoid timbral degradation of the input signal. Power supply is mixed: battery or AC adapter (optional), ideal for installation in pedalboards.

Switching between TRUE BYPASS or the new ULTRA BUFFER

Pitchblack X in addition to having a TRUE BYPASS circuit that leaves the input sound unaffected, now includes an ULTRA BUFFER, but why is this so important?

Most electric guitars use passive pickups with high impedance output. Using cables longer than 20 feet results in timbre degradation usually at high frequencies; a phenomenon that tends to worsen by using longer cables. The BUFFER boosts the signal on long cables to avoid precisely this tonal alteration, keeping the sound clear and clean even with the pedal off. ULTRA BUFFER improves sound quality in bypass mode to maintain sound quality even when using long cables, connecting to the tuner, or installing the tuner in an articulated effects pedalboard. On Pitchblack X, you can select TRUE or ULTRA BUFFER according to your taste or needs.

LED Meter with adjustable brightness

On Pitchblack X for better visibility performance, a larger display and more LEDs have been introduced in the Meter. The Bright Mode (brightness adjustment) can be adjusted to 2 levels to achieve optimal visibility even under critical operating conditions such as on brightly lit stages, or outdoors.

Very high tuning accuracy down to 0.1 cent tolerance.

Pitchblack X enables fast and accurate tuning with a tolerance of only 0.1 cents when in Strobe mode; this makes it the ideal tool for professional Live or Recording situations where tuning is a key parameter where no approximations or inaccuracies are allowed.

METER with 4 Display Modes

On the Meter Display you can choose according to your personal needs between 4 types of display: REGULAR, STROBE, HALF STROBE, indicate the changes in pitch from the direction and fluctuation of the METER, to distinguish even the smallest differences in pitch. MIRROR which by tuning the instrument displays two LEDs on the left and right that cross towards the center.

Display with JUST-RIGHT TUNING Function

Pitchblack X has a new display function JUST-RIGHT TUNING, which makes the triangular LEDs located on both sides flash when the tuning is correct, a function that eliminates any stress on the musician!

Sturdy cabinet; also works on battery power

Pitchblack X is housed in a sturdy aluminum cabinet finished with a tough scratch-resistant coating. It runs on 9-volt batteries, and is perfect for musicians who do not use an effects pedalboard; if needed, it can also be powered by an AC adapter (optional).
