Boss TU1000

The TU1000 is an incredibly easy to use, super accurate tuner perfect for the gigging musician on those dark stages. Once the tuner is activated the output of the instrument is immediately muted so that tuning can be carried out without sound, the actual tuning process uses a series of "streaming" LED lights. The motion of the lights provides an indication of how sharp or flat the string is, and a "Pitch" indicator illuminates once the desired tuning is acheived. Alternatively the TU1000 can be used in "Cent" mode where the LED's act as a needle-type meter where a central position marker denotes that the string has reached the correct pitch.

There are an abundance of connectivity options on the rear panel that include an output jack is for connecting to an effects processor, guitar amp, or other such device. There's also a parallel out jack which allows the user to split the signal from the input jack and send it to a connected effects processor or guitar amp. Additionally the TU1000 tuner ON/OFF socket provides connectivity for an external footswitch (FS-5U sold separately) for powering the tuner on and off remotely.

TU1000 offers a special Flat Tuning mode, which lowers the pitch one or more semitones below the note shown in the display. The display changes according to your choice, from ”lowered one semitone” down to “lowered six semitones"
