TU2 - COMPACT CHROM TUNER

Product Information

Which buttons on the pedal can help you tune your notes and change sound? While both the TU-2 and the TU-3 have ‘Mode’ and ‘Stream/Cent’ buttons, only the TU-3 has a footswitch thrown into the mix. This means you have more control, and you can do much more than just activate the pedal with the footswitch. Reference Pitch Activating either of these tuners when they’re attached to your pedal board couldn’t be easier. Simply stomp once to activate the tuner, this will mute output allowing you to tune in silence. When you’re done, stomp again to reactivate the output. Functions Both the Boss TU-2 and the Boss TU-3 pedal have mute/bypass capabilities. When you use the pedal to bypass the signal (changing it in some way), there is usually an audible sound as you change. A wider tuning range (in the case of both pedals, C0 to C8) means that you can tune your guitar notes in any direction you like. Since both pedals are chromatic tuners, it’s a given that these higher ranges will be available. The TU3 display on its standard setting is just a touch brighter than the original TU2, but the TU3 now has controls, allowing the user to adjust brightness as necessary. This is a welcome feature for anyone who plays outdoors in bright sunlight. Both units have their center LED light up green when you are at pitch, but the TU3 ramps this up with red confirmation lights on either side of the green when it’s satisfied that tuning is correct and stable. Accuracy

Guitar Flat mode specifically allows you to flat tune, so you can drop your tunings up to six semitones. This can be great for creating unique sounds. That isn’t the case with a mute/bypass pedal like this. You can easily change the sound of your signal without hearing any audible indicator that it’s happening, even when you hit the pedal.

Boss’s chromatic tuner TU-2 is a true classic from a trusted, well-renown company. The features still hold up today, even after we’ve gotten an upgraded version. Let’s take a look at the specifications that set the Boss TU-2 apart. Where the TU-2 had a series of lights to indicate your note, the TU-3 has a labeled scale of multiple lights, each with much smaller increments between them. This allows you to be more precise while using the pedal. BOSS tuners are beloved by musicians around the world for their reliability, accuracy, and user friendliness. Since 1983, the TU-12 has been an industry standard. Today’s family of BOSS tuners melds the essence of the TU-12 with modern technology in a wide variety of models. There are several modes within both the TU-2 and the TU-3 which allow them to tune to other guitar sounds (guitar, guitar flat, bass, and bass flat). The TU-3 has 10 different modes available, where the TU has 7 different modes. Control Buttons

What pitch does the pedal use as an internal reference for your notes? Both the TU-2 and TU-3 use the same internal reference: A4, or 438 to 445 Hz. The standard guitar is tuned to 440 Hz and the fact that this reference is within a normal range can help you get the results you want when you tune up or down. Connectors When it comes to the Boss TU-2 vs TU-3, both pedals have their own merits. The Boss TU-2 is a dependable classic that many guitarists still love to use. As far as tuning modes go, both the older TU2 and TU3 feature chromatic, chromatic flat, standard guitar, flat guitar, standard bass, and flat bass tuning options, all accessible by cycling through the mode button. With this variety of settings, both options will effectively allow a player to tune to any pitch they want to play in. Also, the new modes (10 of them) allow you to tune by string number, so you can tune more precisely. There are settings for 7-string guitars and 6-string bases, making it the perfect tuner for any of your guitars.How does the pedal get its power? Here, you will find the difference in the type of battery that each pedal takes. The TU-3 gives you more options, but this is mostly down to personal preference. Modes point LED indicators and new "stream" meter display tuning discrepancy via speed and direction of LEDs (speed of LED movement gets slower as pitch becomes more accurate)
