|
|
Hi !
I read the manual on the Pitchblack to find out which adaptor to use,
the manual states no model, but mentions that it must be a 600ma version.
This strikes me as odd, as it only uses like 30ma.
The DT-10 is the same (43ma).
The KA 183 is recommended for both models on the website
(500-1200ma).
Why this exessive supply ?
Even the Danish distributor recommends any suitable 9v adaptor,
more like 200ma.
Can anyone answers this ?
I do want to use an appropriate adaptor and not violate my warranty ! |

Good to hear. I want to check one out too, because it's look well built and is more accurate than the CA30/GA40 and those other tuners.

Could that because of this feature :
| Quote: | | A 9 VDC output jack is provided for cascading the power supply to other pedals. |
?
Maybe they are allowing for the fact that you're going to power other stomps off of the PitchBlack ?
Oh and welcome to the forum !

I just got one, and I love it too, It's easy to see, I love the different tuning modes, I love the narrow footprint on the pedalboard, there's just one thing:
it makes an audible 'click' in the signal when switched on or off.
Does anyone else have this problem? |

| just got my new pitchblack plus tuner & really like the tuning features but i put it in my pedal board at the beginning of the chain & even though the bypass seems to be working, i hear a hum come thru the amp only when i play a string. as soon as the string fades the hum stops until i play again. no noise switching on or off the tuner but only playing a string during tuning. has anyone had the same problem? |

Got this tuner for christmas, love how easy it is to use. One question though. I have tried to leave the switch on with the guitar plugged in and after a short while, around 3-5 minutes, it shuts off and the guitar signal is passing through. I was trying to use it to silence the bass as I was putting it on a stand and then be able to pick it up again. (trying to keep it silent without using the volume knob during church service). It is running on battery only.
Thanks. |

MY guess that it coming out of tuning while run on battery is a power saving mode. Try with an adapter and see if it does the same thing, my guess it it will stay in tuning mode. I have the PB Plus that I run on a power adapter and use it to stop sound at my church as well and it never pops out of that mode. When I use a volume pedal I use the tuner out and use the pedal to stop signal but leave the tuner on so I can always check.
