Behringer TU300 Chromatic Pedal Tuner

The Behringer TU300 is a great way to get yourself in tune. With seven tuning modes and bypass function, this tuner is a great value.

I put together a pedal board with 6 Behringer pedals and the PB600 pedal board and didn't even spend $250.00. Yes there plastic and yes there inexpensive and yes there from Behringer but forget about that and try these pedals. As for this tuner well unless your just unlucky or maybe don't know how to tune your guitar even with a tuner this thing is great. Just as good as a boss or any other. I play 100 shows a year and have been using this out on gigs with no problems. It's easy to use and easy to see with a nice bright light and it's at a real attractive price.

"Excellent pedals"

Overall: 5 out of 5 stars

I have almost all of the Behringer pedals, as they are inexpensive, yet use the same schematics as the expensive brands. The distortion and tube pedals are great! This is a tuner, so not much you can say other than it works - and it's a LOT less expensive than a Boss or other high end tuners!

"Can't complain for the price."

I just received mine today from zZounds. It does what I expected it to do. It is a bit slow on the note detection, but it seems to work. I'm also using it to split the signal from my guitar to an amp and a multieffect u it that runs to studio monitors. I will say that for that purpose it does it very well and doesn't seem to produce any hiss or hum. For $24 it's worth the price and then some.

Sound
No affect on sound quality. It seems to also failsafe, when it dies, it still passes signal through. That's important, so keep reading...
Features
Seems like a great tuner. When it works.
Ease of Use
It's a tuner. Not too complicated.
Quality
Absolutely without a doubt the worst made product in the history of mankind. Bought one from here at zzounds, brought it to practice, it worked fine. Brought it to a gig 2 days later on a saturday night, hit it, everything went fine. Between songs i went to double check tuning, and after i hit the pedal, it acted like i'd just plugged a cable in, then reset. Every. single. time. RMAed it. Got a new one. Brought it to practice. Worked the first time. Next time, I hit it, and it starts blinking "0" on the LED, on and off. The rate sped up over 30 seconds or so, and eventually it just stayed on. Garbage, complete garbage.
Value
$30 for a brick. You're better off at home depot.
Manufacturer Support
Dunno, zzounds was great for RMAs.
The Wow Factor
Sexy products work. This doesn't. DNW.

"OK"

Overall: 3 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
like i said, it tunes your guitar/bass. But it does take a few seconds to register each note, which is a pain to tell you the truth.
Sound
when i rate the sound, i mean how well it actually tunes the guitar, which is pretty good.
Features
pretty much the same features the Boss tuner has, just a lot cheaper.
Ease of Use
pretty easy to use all of the functions.
Quality
quality is ok, its made outta plastic, so you kinda have to be a little carefull with this pedal.
Value
for the price i guess its pretty good, however, registering the notes is a bit on the slow side.
Manufacturer Support
behringer is a pretty good company. They always answered my questions.
The Wow Factor
considering i have it, its honestly not the best pedal tuner out there.

"disappointing purchase"

Overall: 0.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
After years of relying on my onboard tuner on my Alvarez, I purchased a new guitar without a built in tuner. So I decided to grab a pedal tuner for playing gigs. The TU300 seemed to have many of the same features as the BOSS tuner that my friends all use, but at a much lower price. Also, I have had good luck with other Behringer products that I use in my DJ set up so I thought I would give it a shot. This was a MISTAKE. I have not been happy with it from day one. The plastic casing makes me worry that I am going to break it every time I step on it. The battery is a huge pain to change. When it actually works, it takes forever to register the string you are trying to tune. 75% of the time, it won't even register my low e. I would have returned it, but the stream/cent button disappeared after I used it the first show after I got it. I would never buy another one.

This is about the most useless guitar tuner you could ever imagine. Half the time it doesn't even register the notes on the tuner. Switched from this to a Korg Pitch black and the difference in night and day. Behringer is a garbage company, it's just that simple

"It´s Behringer"

Overall: 0.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
Overall - well it's typical Behringer
Sound
This tuner has sound although it should not have sound, it should be true bypass as stated, and the sound it has, no, its not good
Features
Yes, its got all the features a tuner should have. I would like to mention the bright blue light which is so strong that the actuall display showing the note is hard to see
Ease of Use
Its difficult to change the battery in this tuner, other than that its just a bit more difficult to use than professional tuners because with the Behringer you don't know if its on or off, so you have to rely on the monitor system or backline, Registering the notes on this tuner is really slow
Quality
Its Behringer quality, if you are lucky it still will work tomorrow
Value
You get what you pay for, but with this tuner you get even less
Manufacturer Support
Their support is bad - really bad
The Wow Factor
I had it, I gave Behringer a chance. But I gave it as a present to a young beginner and bought myself a professional tuner

"Typical Behringer"

Overall: 0.5 out of 5 stars
(see rating details)
If you want a good tuner, do not buy this one. Actually, do not buy anything with the name Behringer on it if you want quality
Sound
Well, its a tuner, does it have a sound, it should not have a sound but should be bypass, Unfortunately it does have a sound, and this is bad.
Features
Yes, many features, but in a tuner you only need one feature, this is to be able to tune your guitar or bass. Features is one thing, quality is another.
Ease of Use
This tuner is not easy to use. To change the battery is a major operation, the blue LED is too strong, therefore it is difficult to see the display. Also, this tuner is slow, very slow
Quality
Its Behringer quality, if you are lucky it still will work tomorrow, but I wouldn't bet on it.
Value
The thing is cheap, but you still get less than what you pay for
Manufacturer Support
Behringer support is terrible, they do not want to know
The Wow Factor
I had it but gave it as a present to a kid that is just beginning to learn guitar.
