Korg Pitchblack Pedal Tuner
Brand
KORG
Professional touring guitarists, bassists, and live sound engineers require an on-stage tuning pedal that combines absolute visual readability with absolute signal transparency. Cheap plastic tuner boxes degrade your raw guitar tone through poor internal buffering, wobble underfoot, and wash out completely under bright concert festival lighting. The Korg Pitchblack Chromatic Pedal Tuner delivers a premium staging solution. Packed inside an ultra-rugged aluminum frame that fits seamlessly onto any standard effects pedalboard, this industry-standard utility balances extreme detection accuracy with zero tonal footprint.
Experience the industry standard for professional stage tuning with the KORG Pitchblack Advance Pedal Tuner. Engineered as the flagship floor tuner for gigging guitarists and bassists across the UAE, the Pitchblack Advance merges Korg’s legendary detection speed with extreme accuracy and a massive, high-visibility display. Built into a rugged, stage-ready aluminum chassis, this pedal provides the essential performance reliability needed for everything from intimate acoustic sets to high-volume festival tours, ensuring your instrument remains perfectly in tune under the most demanding live performance conditions.
Advanced Metering and Superior Accuracy
The Pitchblack Advance is built on Korg’s decades of experience in precision instrument tuning. It offers an incredible tuning accuracy of +/- 0.1 cents, making it the perfect choice for professional recording sessions and technical live setups where pitch perfection is non-negotiable. The high-contrast LED meter is significantly brighter and more dynamic than standard pedal tuners, featuring a smooth, responsive motion that allows you to lock onto your target pitch almost instantly.
To accommodate diverse performance needs, the tuner includes four distinct meter modes: Regular, Strobe, Half-Strobe, and Mirror. The Strobe mode is particularly valuable for precise intonation adjustments, while the Regular mode provides a familiar, intuitive layout for quick, mid-song adjustments. Because the signal path is 100% "true-bypass," your dry guitar tone remains completely unaffected by the internal circuitry when the pedal is disengaged, preserving your signal's purity and harmonic integrity.
Road-Ready Durability and Power Management
Designed to survive the rigors of the road, the Pitchblack Advance is encased in a durable, die-cast aluminum housing that withstands heavy foot-stomping and accidental impacts. Its streamlined, pedalboard-friendly footprint ensures it integrates easily into your existing rig. Beyond its internal reliability, the unit offers a smart DC output jack, which allows you to daisy-chain power to other pedals on your board, effectively saving space on your power supply and reducing cable clutter.
For the mobile performer, the Pitchblack Advance offers exceptional power efficiency, with a long battery life that keeps you running through extensive touring schedules. Whether you are using a standard 9V battery or a pedalboard power supply, the internal circuitry is designed for stability and low noise, ensuring that your tuner adds zero unwanted signal artifacts to your performance chain.
