No longer available at zZounds
Packing the power of the TC Electronics PolyTune into a compact pedal, the PolyTune Mini adds incredible tuning performance to any pedalboard.

The TC Electronic PolyTune Mini is the world's smallest polyphonic tuner -- and it will fit on any pedal board. Sometimes size actually does matter, and in such cases, PolyTune Mini is the perfect solution. No other pedal tuner in the world will take up so little space -- which means more room for other pedals.

PolyTune Mini shows you the tuning state of all strings simultaneously by simply strumming your guitar, allowing you to get back to playing in a matter of seconds. PolyTune Mini is among the most precise tuners in the world, tuning with +/- 0.5 cent precision in chromatic mode and +/- 1 cent accuracy in polyphonic mode. Also, it automatically switches between chromatic and polyphonic modes depending on whether you strum all strings at once or pick each string individually.

Further, PolyTune Mini features Drop-D and Capo modes as well as True Bypass for zero tone coloration and a super-bright LED display.

This TC Electronic video gives a great overview of the PolyTune Mini:


PolyTune Mini - Tiny Meets Awesome

Tuning used to be a necessary evil. The last barrier before you could get truly rocking. But now, tuning is ready to get blasted into the 21st century with PolyTune Mini - a downright tuning miracle! The original PolyTune was the world's first polyphonic tuner - a multiple patents pending, game-changing total tuning turnaround that will have future guitarists wondering how they ever got by without it.

It couldn't be done - until they did it.

The magic lies read more in a never before seen approach to tuning aimed at speed, accuracy and ease of use. With PolyTune Mini, you simply strum all strings on your guitar at once, and it will immediately tell you which strings need tuning! This cutting-edge tuning technology revolutionizes the way you tune and accomplishes what has been deemed 'impossible' until now: tuning all strings simultaneously! It really is as simple as strum - tune - rock, and this quantum leap forward allows you to get in tune fast, and back to doing what you love: playing. Crowds don't want to wait around, they want to rock, and, let's face it, so do you.

Fever Pitch

PolyTune is extremely flexible as well. The reference pitch can be set to your preference and ranges from 435Hz to 445Hz. This guarantees you'll be able to play along with anyone, with any instrument and in any situation.

Chromatic champion

Besides the Polyphonic tuner, PolyTune Mini has a chromatic tuner that can hang with the best current tuning technology out there, with an amazing 0.5 cent accuracy. But they are never satisfied with the current norm, and added some features to make this tuner's chromatic section stand out from the crowd. Let's start with the two separate chromatic tuning modes, which cater to your individual preferences and needs. Needle mode is for those that are used to the classic view on a tuner. If you want a little more real-time information, they have included stream-mode, which measures even the slightest pitch variation and instantly feeds the info back to you via a rotating motion on the display.

Tuning Magnet

Key to both these great chromatic modes is an ultra-fast and precise response, which is achieved via the use of the unique tuner magnet feature. This slows down the needle once you get close to the desired pitch, making it much easier to get the job done quickly.

MonoPoly

Whether you want to use the polyphonic tuner to get in tune, or prefer to go the chromatic route, this pedal has you covered. PolyTune Mini features "MonoPoly", a jaw-dropping technology that recognizes whether you play one or more strings and instantly replies with the appropriate poly- or monophonic tuning mode.

Total Recall

Of course, all of these amazing features would not mean a thing if they were a pain to use or set up. So, they added some traits to ensure this tuner is calibrated to the guitarist. Unlike most other tuners, PolyTune stores your preferences. From pitch reference to tuning mode, it hangs on to this information even after it is powered down, making sure you only have to set how you want things to happen once. The next time you power up again, it will show you the settings, so you instantly know Everything is exactly how you want it to be.

They can't make tuning fun. But they can sure make it a whole lot easier.

They want to do they part for the guitar community and truly innovate the life of guitarists. And with PolyTune Mini's extraordinary features and cutting-edge technology, they feel they have accomplished just that. They are passionate guitarists themselves and they work every single day to make all they lives easier and more rocking. They did it for multi-effects with G-Force, G-Major2, Nova System and G-System, they did it for stomp boxes with the Nova series, and now PolyTune is here to give tuning a much needed kick in the A440!
