Peterson StroboStomp HD
Compact pedal strobe tuner with pop-less true bypass and buffered output modes. Variable colour, LED backlight for maximum visibility in any setting and total personalised control.
Featuring the largest tuning display Peterson Tuners has ever incorporated into one of their pedal tuners, the StroboStomp HD boasts a high-definition, LCD screen that incorporates a variable colour LED backlight. The user-selectable colours can be used to personalise the tuner or to increase display viewing quality in different levels of ambient lighting depending on the usage environment. The vibrant screen colours can also be assigned to stock or user presets to significantly reduce menu navigation time and increase on-stage tuning confidence at the gig.
For tone purists, the StroboStomp HD provides a 100% silent, true-bypass operation mode to keep precious tone safe, as well as eliminate the often annoying "pop" experienced when engaging such a feature in other products. It uses a unique series of timed relays incorporated within its circuitry to shunt the signal, draining the cause of the popping sound prior to breaking the connection, and effectively shutting the tuner down for direct play through without affecting tone quality.
The StroboStomp HD also includes a long-time, user-requested buffered output operation mode that can be user engaged. The buffered mode can be used in or out of monitor mode. It is designed to boost instrument drive to overcome potential tone loss in signal chains that incorporate multiple low-impedance guitar pedals or those that utilize long cable runs. The buffered output modes preserve sonic quality all through the instrument range and keep prized core tone intact.
The StroboStomp HD features over 100 exclusive Sweetened Tunings as well as numbered guided tuning presets for a large variety of instruments and playing styles. Sweetened Tunings are exclusive to Peterson tuning products and are designed to help correct inherent tuning issues exhibited by many instruments. The new "Guided Tunings" mode allows the StroboStomp HD to display numeric string values instead of traditional note names making for sure-fire intuitive and rapid re-tuning to any number of open and alternative tunings. The Guided Tuning mode was instituted for beginners who want to experiment with popular alternate tunings in addition to experienced players who employ multiple tunings in rapid succession. Numerically expressed scales are also included.
Pure Buffer Mode Operation
Does your love for effect-driven musical chaos require a massive pedal board? Need that XL cable for jumping off the stack during your face melting solo?
No problem.
The StroboStomp HD features a PURE buffer mode to preserve the sonic clarity of your axe while enabling you to run a collection of pedals and long cable lengths without compromise.
100% Pop-less True Bypass
Peterson redesigned and greatly improved the way incoming signal was handled in true-bypass mode to deliver a perfectly silent experience when muting your signal.
A dual relay circuit effectively bleeds out any incoming signal before powering the tuner down resulting in a silent transition without affecting tone quality.
Peterson See All Colour Differently
The LCD display on the StroboStomp HD is easy to see in bright lighting conditions but the LED backlight colour is user-adjustable to suit your particular viewing preference.
Globally change the display colour for all functions or choose to associate colours with specific tunings for easy and quick identification at the gig.
Create custom colours on Peterson Connect or use any of the 10 preset colours to organize your preset tuning list.
Can We Go Outside and Play Now?
The multi-colour display on the StroboStomp HD is easy to see - even in direct sunlight!
The strobe image and note name appear monochromatic in direct sunlight making it very easy to view what is going on with your tuning when playing outdoors.
Tune confidently with the largest strobe and note name pattern ever designed into a pedal tuner.
Easy Access to Performance Modes
You can quickly toggle between 3 unique performance modes with the StroboStomp HD.
Select true bypass mode, buffered output mode, or monitor mode (tuning always visible) by setting the mode switch located in the battery box.
No bottom plate to remove or dip switches to select!
You Have The Power
Power other 9v pedals on your board with the power throughput jack on the StroboStomp HD.
With a standard 85mA current draw (typical), you can confidently power additional effects in your rig using standard 9v power supplies.
Lots of effects? Most daisy-chain power supplies max out at 8 outlets. The StroboStomp HD's dedicated power out jack can be used for a 9th pedal!
