The polytune manual says just play and it'll show the tuning of all strings… What about a 12 string?
I also don't see that it has a microphone… what is the recommended way to tune an acoustic with no output jack?
Are there no options to buy a clip on attachment to the headstock instead of having to buy a microphone just a tune an acoustic?
Says I haven't filled in all required fields when I have. I managed to get it to work by chance but the ticket still does not show. As far as I'm aware there's no way to contact support directly about this?
do you sell spares mins broken?
Bought tuner and used it to tune Les Paul. Played an E chord and it was way out of tune. Probably me and not the tuner. Tried to update software with no luck. Can you advise? Thanks Dean
Hello
Im using my Polytune3 in always on mode. Is there a way to get a visual Feedback whether the signal output is switched on or off.
Momentary Im just guessing. Firmware is the latest.
THX in advance
Hi - Thank you for your answer. But it really doesnt help very much. I have switched (via Dip switches) the Polytune in Always On - Mode, so I can contol my Tune wether the output is muted or not. In that Mode I cant see a red "red #". It shows a red dot (4Leds) when there is no signal at the input. It does not matter if I press the footswitch (which is working perfectly). It shows always those 4 red Leds in a square. Maybe you could take a closer look at the "Always on" Mode.
I recently had to repair the output jack on my polytune 2 blacklight. While I was working on it I decided to update the firmware from the website to version 2.6. Now, the strobe display mode on my tuner is screwed!!!!!!! Everything works as it should except that when I use the strobe mode the display is garbled. The only thing that is identifiable is the note I'm playing. Has anyone else had this happen? Does anyone have a link to the OLD version polytune 2 firmware.... the one before 2.6 that screwed mine up. I love this tune and want ot keep it, it has been with me everywhere! Please, anyone that can throw me some help it would be most appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!!! God Bless and happy new year.
Hi,
I'm struggling to find a definitive answer on this...
The big Polytune has a bass mode, and works well for both chromatic and polyphonic tuning on a 5 string bass.
The Minis seem to lack a bass mode, so I'm wondering how (if at all) they work with a 5 string bass in Polyphonic mode.
Any guidance much apprecaited.
Thanks.
When I am at home or using in low ambient noise, it works perfectly.
But when I am at a gig with high ambient noise, it doesn't detect the signal and the gauge swings erraticaly without homing in on the string signal. It doesn't work in multi string or single string modes.
It looks like the ambient noise is "confusing" it, which is of course inconcievable given that the signal is sent via the guitar cable.
Any thoughts / suggestions?
Hello,
Can someone point me to the FAQ on how to get the Polytune out of boot mode? I tried to update the firmware, but it got stuck and now I can't unstick it.
I downloaded the "PolyTune_SWUPdater" and "setup" file, and followed all the instructions on the release notes page.
The issue seems to be that the SW Updater is designed to work in Windows XP, not Windows 10. I tried to run various compatability settings (like running the program in compatability mode for Win XP), but it doesn't let me run the SW Updater, so I can't update the firmware (and its now stuck in the boot mode).
I read that you can run the SW Updater program from an old Windows XP computer and get it to work, but I really don't have any of those around, or know anyone who does.
Can someone please help?
