Description

The Korg Pitchblack X Mini is a mini pedal tuner designed for guitarists who prioritize accuracy, compact size, and clear visibility. Here’s a closer look at its features:

Compact Design: Weighing only 124 grams and featuring a sleek design, the Pitchblack X Mini fits effortlessly onto crowded pedalboards without sacrificing valuable space. Its durable, powder-coated finish ensures it can withstand the rigors of frequent use.

Multiple Display Modes: This tuner offers a variety of display options (Regular, Strobe, Half-Strobe, Mirror) allowing you to choose the visualization that best suits your preference and environment. This flexibility is a big plus for guitarists who may need different visual aids depending on the situation.

High Tuning Accuracy: The Pitchblack X Mini boasts an impressive tuning accuracy of ±0.1 cents, especially in Strobe mode. This level of precision is essential for professional settings where even the slightest detuning can be noticeable.

Ultra Buffer Technology: This technology helps maintain the integrity of your guitar’s tone, especially when using long cables or complex pedal setups. It prevents high-frequency loss, ensuring your instrument sounds clear and defined.

Clear Visibility: The enhanced display features additional meter LEDs and adjustable brightness settings, making it easy to see your tuning status in various lighting conditions. However, the reviewer notes that some other Korg Pitchblack tuners might have slightly better visibility.

Just-Right Function: This user-friendly feature makes tuning easier and less stressful. When your instrument is perfectly in tune, the triangular LEDs on both sides of the display will blink, providing a clear confirmation. This is particularly helpful for quick and accurate tuning during live performances or studio sessions.

Power Supply: The Pitchblack X Mini runs on a standard 9V AC adapter (not included) with a low power consumption of 30 mA.
