    It's confusing because the indicator light goes out and it seems like the pedal is off
  

*by R***S on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on November 25, 2014*

I found out the hard way that pressing the pedal doesn't turn off the unit. It was eating a 9V battery every two to three days. It's confusing because the indicator light goes out and it seems like the pedal is off.  Cust support explained the only way to shut off the unit is to unplug the guitar cable from the unit.  The DI interface draws a lot of power and drains the battery if the cable is plugged in.I can't give 5 stars because this unit needs a on/off toggle switch. A 10 cent part could have saved me $12 in ruined batteries.I really like how much quicker this tuner responds compared to the peterson clip on. It's cut my tuning time in half and is more accurate.

    Top of the line
  

*by R***N on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 25, 2016*

Without doubt the reputation of this product preceded it as well as any review.  Not much I can say since this is hands down the current reigning king of stomp box tuners.  Would be 5 stars if the price were a little more reasonable.  It's not like the technology is new or exclusive, and although the extra features boost the value it's still pricey and perhaps Peterson should consider taking a look at applying the Laffer Curve to their pricing and their profit might increase.  No benefit to me however as I've already dropped my $200 lol. The only consolation is that it should last a lifetime.

    Why did I wait so long?
  

*by J***2 on Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 9, 2013*

From the moment I first saw one of these online, I knew it would make my setup at church both simpler and better.  I'm a freak about tuning and intonation, so I haven't been thrilled with the built-in tuners in effects pedals or amps.  With many of my instruments, I don't need the effects -- just the ability to tune and plug into the PA.  But the price of this tuner held me back for well over a year.  I put it on my Wish List this Christmas, knowing that it was out of anyone's price range (but one can hope).  So on Dec 26, I just bought it for myself.  It's a beast, as stomp boxes go, but it replaces a tuner and a DI box, so it's still an improvement.  And it just fits into the accessory compartment of my Gretsch hardshell case.  The sweetened tuning options do just what they're supposed to do, and the ability to use sweetened tuning with a capo on my guitars and banjo is wonderful.  I hate burning up (and relying on) batteries, so I was surprised that it didn't include a power supply at the price.  But it turns out that it runs on phantom power in DI mode, which is even better!  That was an unexpected treat.  Now, I'm just kicking myself for waiting so long to get one.
