Since 1948, Peterson Strobe Tuners have defined the standard in tuning accuracy. The StroboPLUS HDC encompasses decades of tuning authority and technology to deliver the ultimate strobe tuner/metronome combo!
The StroboPLUS HDC's 0.1 cent tuning accuracy will tune any instrument with the utmost precision. Featuring a high-definition, multi-colour display with variable colour LED backlight, the StroboPLUS HDC display can be seen easily across the stage, bench, studio or classroom. Over 200 exclusive Sweetened Tunings and Guided Tunings on-board accommodate a variety of instruments, temperaments, and musical genres.
The highly configurable metronome features precise 0.1 BPM adjustability in eighth notes, quarter notes, dotted quarter notes or half notes, a tempo range of 10-280 BPM, over 100 subdivisions, accent patterns, and polyrhythms. The StroboPLUS HDC can also be used to play thousands of bars of tempo maps, programmable from the Peterson Connect Web App. A single tempo map can play an entire score of meter changes, accent patterns, subdivisions, bar colours, silent bars and gradually curved tempo changes like accelerandos and ritardandos. The StroboPLUS HDC is the perfect tuning, ear training and rhythm tool all in one package!
ULTRA-HIGH TUNING RESOLUTION
All Peterson products provide guaranteed tuning results to within +/-0.1 cent (1/1000th of a fret or semitone).
The StroboPLUS HDC employs Peterson's proprietary Strobo Tuning Technology to tune your instrument to an ultra-high degree of accuracy.
This level of accuracy is an industry benchmark and what has made Peterson the choice of professionals around the globe for over 70 years.
REAL-TIME TUNING RESPONSE
The StroboPLUS HDC's Virtual Strobe display is DIRECTLY driven by the input signal. That means you'll see the attack, sustain, and the decay of the note being tuned - all in real-time.
Its speed of movement is in direct correlation to the distance from the target pitch and the display doesn't exhibit the often found jerky motion found in needle or LED-based tuners.
You can literally watch the strobe bands settle as you pull that note into the target pitch!
METRONOME INCLUDED
The StroboPLUS HDC includes the most innovative and versatile metronome as a standard feature.
Hundreds of subdivision combinations, accent patterns, polyrhythms, and user-imagined tempo maps are at your disposal.
Tactile feedback is also available with the use of an optional BodyBeat Vibe Clip.
Loads of Sweetened Tunings and More
The StroboPLUS HDC comes with over 180 factory preset Sweetened Tunings that cover a wide variety of electric and acoustic instruments. Sweetened Tunings address the specific inharmonicities of the selected instruments to optimize their tuning.
Also included standard are a collection of guided tunings that include popular drop, alternate, artist-specific, and standard string number tunings.
Native compatibility with Peterson Connect allows users to configure and update their StroboPLUS HDC for a personal tuning experience.
