The KORG Pitchblack X PB-X in Cream brings modern performance and reliable accuracy to your pedalboard. As part of KORG's long-standing Pitchblack tuner series, this model raises the bar by introducing the ULTRA BUFFER. This newly developed feature prevents signal loss over long cables and complex pedal chains, ensuring your tone remains clear when the tuner is bypassed. Players can easily switch between ULTRA BUFFER and classic True Bypass depending on their rig setup.
Visibility is seamless on dark stages and under direct sunlight, thanks to a larger display with extra LEDs and a two-stage Bright Mode. The unit offers four display modes: Regular, Strobe, Half Strobe, and Mirror. When using Strobe mode, tuning accuracy reaches an impressive ±0.1 cents for professional recording and performance standards. Dual triangle LEDs flash on the display as soon as you hit the exact pitch.
Compact and lightweight, the unit measures 69 mm by 110 mm by 49 mm and weighs 248 g including the battery. It operates on a standard 9V battery or an optional AC adapter, featuring both DC IN and DC OUT jacks. The tuner covers a detection range from E0 to C8 and supports calibration from A4 = 436 to 445 Hz. It comes complete with a test battery, rubber feet, and safety documents.
