Anyone have experience with programming a Peterson tuner with a tuning for 1/2 step low?
I have tuned up my E9 to 1/2 step low. How do I program those notes into a Stroborack or a StroboPlus HD?
Thanks

Charlie,I was gonna tune one of my guitars to a"D" a whole step down,And I called Peterson,and they suggested that I just transpose the tuner down a step,Which would be the easiest way...but Laziness took over and I never did a thing about it.Maybe I'll do it soon,A lot less work than changing all of those parameters! _________________ Steeltronics Z-pickup,Desert Rose S-10 4+5,Desert Rose Keyless S-10 3+5...

You can add a preset with your sweetener half a step down, or do it whenever you select the sweetener each time. |

If I just use the SE9 sweetener its pretty far out of tune. I'm guessing the offsets are different being 1/2 step lower?
The guitar is now in tune (1/2 step low), If was able to see how many cents it is off (from ET?) I could probably figure out how to program a custom sweetened program.
Looking for someone who has done this.
Thanks |

I talked to Peterson. On the StroboRack there is a button called Drop. It actually changes all of the offsets for dropping by however many 1/2 steps. I'll see if it works.
Thanks
Update: Transpose -1 with SE9 worked perfectly on the Stroboplus HD |

I use the SE9 and don't have any problems with being "out of tune". I'm in with others in the band at the "open" fret and I've done many recordings and all are in tune.
However, the first time I tried it, I was not happy with it and went back to a Newman tuning at "0" (440). Seemed like my guitar just wouldn't tune. When I got the new Peterson StroboPlus HD I tried it again and everything worked. |
