  4. anyone know a good 'guitar pro' software to use?


  7. Ohh. There are ways you know...
    Anyway, I heard about another software called Powertab. I have never used it, but it looked to be an almost exact copy of guitar pro.

  10. TC ELECTRONICS POLYTUNE.

    It will be the best $99.99 you ever spent.

    It works for guitar, bass.

    It can be used as a chromatic tuner, to tune one string at a time.

    If you strum all 6 strings it works in "polytune" mode which will show you which of the 6 strings you just strummed are out of tune. Great for fast cleanup of tuning will on stage.

    You can also set it to strobe-tune which is incredibly accurate.

    You can ALSO set the tuner for a guitar tuning of E, Eb, D, C or B. Helpful if you are switching between E and Eflat tunings.

    The "Polytune" mode doesn't work with Drop D, open or modal tunings (alternative tunings) but the it can still be used in the single string at a time "Chromatic" mode.

    Again, it will be the best $99.99 you ever spent. It's far more accurate than Boss tuners. (And Boss tuners are not horrible).

    A better tuner? Don't know there is one is this price range. The Peterson Strobo-Stomp, and Flip-Strobe are amazing, accurate and $200 to $300.

    Dallas Schoo uses a variety of Peterson strobe-tuners and there is a Boss tuner on Edge's pedalboard.

    For my tech gig, I used a Boss TU-12 to get the guitars close and Peterson Strobo-Stomp to dial in the accuracy. I will now be using the TC Electronics Polytune to get things close to perfect and Peterson to get them dead on.

    Why not JUST the Peterson? If you've used a strobe tuner you will see that they are very sensitive. So if the guitar is VERY out, the display spins fast... I have just found it easier to get them close with a chromatic tuner and then fine tune with the strobe tuner.

    True. And it can depend on live vs studio recording. Also things can change from tour to tour. Edge had been playing "Mysterious Ways" in Eb and during Vertigo he played it in E.
  12. What is the strobe tune, Jeff?
