I absolutely agree........ however
Having trawled through several Darkglass threads the design ethic seems to be to produce a product that is serviceable and upgradeable. something that is lacking in a lot of Class D amplification. From a business point of view unfortunately a tuner is another component to go wrong that has to be addressed under warranty so I would imagine as a first run product it would be a calculable risk to incorporate third party tech.
This is probably for another thread but the insistence on being in tune does not shift musical gear..... we all work with guitarists don't we........ but in a perfect world it would be amazing to have a quality comp and tuner built into the product ( and wireless, filter, reverb,chorus and octave)
I've ordered one.....its the most excited i've been about bass related product in a long time.
