henrywillard Posted May 7, 2013 Share Posted May 7, 2013 Hi all. I am looking for a pedal tuner that I can connect within my current set up of my DPA 4099 (old style), going into an ART Tube MP V3 for 48v phantom power, which I then usually send straight to the desk. On rare occasions I will go through my Schertler Unico amp. Within my current set-up, it is all XLR cables, however I cannot find any pedal tuners with XLR inputs and outputs, only 1/4" jack. Does anyone know of any pedal tuners with XLR in and outputs? If so, where would the tuner go within the chain? In between the DPA and the ART, or between the ART and the desk? I was considering something like the Korg Pitchblack, and using XLR to 1/4" jack cables, but am worried using these type of cables would mean a significant loss of sound quality? Thoughts?? I did find the Zoom A3, which is mainly an FX pedal for acoustic guitar, and noticed it has an Upright Bass setting on it, as well as a built-in tuner and XLR inputs and outputs. Has anyone got experience of using a Zoom A3 within their set-up? Do you know if it would it work within my current set-up? Only thing is it is £150, which is a lot of money for just a pedal tuner, which is probably the only function I would purchase it for. If there isn't a pedal tuner with XLR in and outputs on the market, is there such a product as a channel switcher with XLR and 1/4" jack inputs, where I could run my existing set-up through Channel A, and when I want to tune up, hit a foot switch to switch to Channel B, and have something like the Korg pitchblack running through Channel B? Is there such a product that could do this? Would such a set-up even work?? Apologies for so many questions! Any help and as much detail/links to product examples as possible would be extremely appreciated!! I am a bit of a novice when it comes to pickups/amplification set-up's etc! Thank you!

blinddrew Posted May 8, 2013 Share Posted May 8, 2013 Why not just take the 1/4" output from the Art and run that into a normal floor tuner? Take it out of the loop and run it as a stub? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
