Vibrations in the instrument (especially acoustic instruments) from surrounding frequencies are picked up by the StroboFlip and can make tuning difficult.
PETERSON VS F STROBOFLIP VIRTUAL STROBE TUNER SERIES
When tuning on the fly, it helps to use the StroboFlip with another, simpler tuner in series simply due to the sensitivity of the StroboFlip. Signs of low battery power manifest themselves in a fading display and inability to grab and read a note. The StroboFlip also has an auto-off function to preserve battery life. Batteries last for quite a while in the StroboFlip, much longer than a 9V lasts in most pedal tuners. The Stroboflip operates via an included power adapter, or AA batteries. In other features, the StroboFlip includes a mounting clamp, as well as a seperate pickup for tuning acoustic instruments in loud environments. It also features offsets for Buzz Feiten tuning systems. And what's more, you can create your own presets and store up to 244 of them onboard the StroboFlip. No other available compact tuner does this. There are quite a few features within the Stroboflip, among them being 34 built-in presets of temperaments and Peterson's patented "sweeteners", which are variations on perfect intervallic note spacing arrangements, optimized for certain applications and instruments. It boasts a staggering 1/1000th of a cent accuracy, and features a Vernier range of A390-490hz, allowing you to tune virtually any instrument to any tolerance, even if it doesn't plug into the tuner (the Stroboflip has a built-in mic). The StroboFlip is roughly 4 inches by 4 inches square, and about an inch and a half thick, so it's comparably sized to most pedal tuners. Peterson has recognized this, and produced numerous models of Virtual Strobe tuners that are smaller and "virtually" as accurate as their true mechanical strobe predecessors.īeginning with the VS-1 and now the VS-F StroboFlip, Peterson is placing their legendary accuracy into the hands of techs and players alike without the large size and cost of its more flagship bench models. With the introduction of the 400 series strobe tuners in the 60's, touring acts now had access to precise instrument tuning, and the 400 series became standard equipment for guitar techs everywhere.īut times, they are a-changin', and travel costs are skyrocketing, and the bulky design of the 400 series makes it less ideal for traveling in some situations. The Peterson Strobe tuner has been the industry standard for ultra-precise instrument tuning for decades.
