Full disclosure, I now work full time for Peterson. I also made chaptered videos explaining every single function and parameter of the StroboPLUS HDC. You can find that on the Peterson UA-cam Channel under Playlists. Please feel free to reach out to us with any questions. Our online helpdesk is the quickest way to get to our technicians and team. www.petersontuners.com/support/newticket

@@BobMakesMusic thanks. I’ll check them out. My first thought is that it’s not very intuitive to use and the metronome isn’t loud enough. I wanted something to use with my guitar students but you can’t even hear it over even a very low volume guitar amp :/

This was a video that I made for Eargasm. They asked for an unboxing video separate from a review video. Unfortunately, they are no longer producing the Slide earplugs.

@@BobMakesMusic Thanks for your explanation.

Hi, apologies for the delayed response. I haven’t gotten notifications from this channel in almost 3 years! I do notice a slights change in volume when I’m speaking, but not to the point where I am yelling. Yes, opening the port makes it much easier to hear myself outside of my head. I know you know what I mean. Unfortunately, Eargasm is no longer producing the Slide earplugs. It seems D’Addario has a version of them now called the dBUD. They are identical, except black.

The 1/4” is a thru-put of instrument only. No mute. The tone generator and metronome sounds play through the 1/8” headphone output.

@@BobMakesMusic Thanks. I bought the StroboPLUS HDC. Just forgot to register it in time.

I apologize for the delay in the response. I hadn’t gotten notifications for this page in nearly 3 years. I practice my contrabass with the metronome on Voice 2 with no issues hearing it. I also practice my scales with the tone generator in the 4th octave and it is loud enough for me to hear my intonation against the drone. The metronome and to e generator will output through the 1/8” headphone output if you would like to connect to an external speaker.

I apologize for the delay in the response. I hadn’t gotten notifications for this page in nearly 3 years. The plus is very easy to see from that distance. The large arc of the strobe image helps for long distance viewing. I also use a StroboClip on my double bass. I attach it to the bass side leg of my bridge with the display facing upward towards me. I have no problems tracking with it in this position. Give that a try. I hope this helps!

Thank you! I have lost part of my hearing from being in loud bands as a teenager. I suffer from tinnitus because of that. I only endorse products I truly believe in, and the Eargasm earplugs are something I use on every single gig. If you get a pair, I hope you have the same positive experiences that I do!

@@BobMakesMusic Your welcome Bob!, I suffer from tinnitus too in my right ear, because when i was a tennanger a was DJ and i play in a loud clubs and use headphones with max volume, today im 22 years and i lost part of the hearing, plus i have hearing sensitivity and tinnitus.

@@BobMakesMusic Bob, I have a question about the slider mechanism on these earplugs. ¿did you have any issues with the slider wearing out, or over time it loosens and shifts on its own?

@@matii9004 no problems after years of use. I have replaced the foam tips a few times, but that is expected.

I apologize for the delay in the response. I hadn’t gotten notifications for this page in nearly 3 years. This is something that we have been developing. We have it close, but not yet perfect. I can’t give a timeline to its release, but I am hopeful it will be soon.

We successfully tracked to B -1. Check this around the 16:20 mark: ua-cam.com/video/Qd0DOpLRlOc/v-deo.html

I apologize for the delay in the response. I hadn’t gotten notifications for this page in nearly 3 years. I have a video with a friend and his SubContra bass guitar showing the tuner tracking to Bb -1. We honestly did not know it would track that low, but it did. On paper, the frequency response goes down to 16Hz.

I apologize for the delay in the response. For some reason I have not gotten notifications for this page in nearly 3 years. As a tuner it is extremely fast and accurate. When singing with vibrato the tuner picks up every fluctuation of pitch. If I sing senza vibrato, I can get the tuner to stop spinning. There is a feature within Peterson Connect to slow down the speed of the strobe which does make it more useful for singers. This involves connecting the tuner to a computer and configuring a custom sweetener to have the slower speed. I will happily make a video demonstrating this if it would be helpful to you. Just let me know.

@American Hero hater

Thank you!

I’m fairly certain the battery is replaceable. I remember seeing replacements on their website, but they may be unavailable right now. Their customer service is really, really great. I recommend filling out a support ticket on their website. Please let me know how it goes! www.petersontuners.com/support/newTicket/

I apologize for the delay in the response. I hadn’t gotten notifications for this page in nearly 3 years. The battery is replaceable. Peterson sells them directly on their website. www.petersontuners.com/shop As for the speaker, it may be worth opening a helpdesk ticket to have it repaired. www.petersontuners.com/support/newticket Full disclosure, I do now work for Peterson full time. Please let us know if we can help you in anyway. The help desk is the quickest way to get in touch with our technicians and team members.

Yes, whatever Sweetener preset is active at the time can be used to either tune visually using the strobe image or can be played as audio tones using the StroboPLUS HD-C's tone generator function. That goes for everything from a guitar Sweetener to the new xenharmonic/microtonic presets (15-tone 6th Comma Meantone, 19TET, 22 Shruti, 24, 31 & 53TET).

@@johnnorris8409 One more question! Can different octaves of notes have different tunings? Can an A4 be 440Hzand the lower A3 be lower? Like 217Hz instead of 220Hz.

@@CarlosSantiago-td9eh Yes, that is already the case with all of our current model hardware tuners and the HD-C is no different. The tuners are unique in this respect as they give you complete freedom to program the pitch of any note in any octave independently, going so far as to even allow the programming of multiple pitch targets of the same note in the same octave within a single preset.

@@johnnorris8409 Thanks!!! I pre-ordered. This is a GOD level tuner/metronome. I will use alongside my iStrobosoft, and another online tone generator. Epic!

I apologize for the delay in the response. I hadn’t gotten notifications for this page in nearly 3 years. Yes, the tone generator will follow the preset Sweetener.

It will depend upon how much is programmed, like the new accel/rit ramps, color and flash mode changes. Thousands of bars can be programmed. I put a local high school’s entire marching band show into my HDC, and the memory still shows 99% available.

@@BobMakesMusic oh my! I’m getting this.

@@CarlosSantiago-td9eh it’s a very powerful tuner and metronome. Have you signed up for the shipping updates? They should be rolling very soon. www.petersontuners.com/products/stroboplushdc/

Is it loud enough to be heard over a brass trio counting in time together?

@@soundknight I’m not sure. How are you guys counting while playing Brass? Lol. The metronome is pretty loud. If you need more volume, you can plug into an aux input on a bluetooth speaker or regular speaker and crank it even more.

I apologize for the delay in the response. I hadn’t gotten notifications for this page in nearly 3 years. The display on the PLUS HDC is large enough to be viewed while next to your music. I have found that the kickstand on the back provides a perfect way to mount the tuner on my music stand. Extend the kickstand and place the tuner on the top edge of the music stand as opposed to the bottom rack portion. This way the tuner is high and directly next to my music and I can glance up to check my intonation as I practice.

That's a great question. I don't use the strobe tuner function while I am singing. The human voice, especially my type of operatic baritone, contains many overtones and the vibrato of the voice doesn't lend itself well to electronic tuners. I have done considerable work in an applied voice lab studying the human voice, particularly straight tone singing. By using spectrogram analysis we came to the conclusion that pure straight tone singing is impossible for humans to recreate. There will always be some amount of vibrato present in the voice. I have used the StroboPlus HDC as a rehearsal metronome while learning new music. I can create a tempo map on the Peterson website, import it to my HDC, and then scale the tempo back while I work to get the words pronounced correctly. The HDC allows you to dial back the tempo and it retains that ratio throughout the tempo map. It's amazingly handy. As far as flashing a color when a note is in tune, Peterson tuners are so accurate that having the display flash a different color when a note is perfectly in tune would create a strobe light effect. I have used the StroboStomp HD on my pedalboard with my upright and electric upright basses. It has a very large display and I can adjust my intonation on the fly using it. I would recommend looking into the StroboStomp HD is you have a pickup on your cello. Otherwise, consider placing the StroboPlus HDC on the stand next to your music. It has a built in kickstand for this purpose. That was a longwinded answer. Thanks for giving me some great points to make in my upcoming demo videos!

@@BobMakesMusic Thanks for that informative reply. I will look forwards to your demonstration! I've been thinking of the clip on version but holding out to see what this new one is fully capable of. No pickup on my cello, I just have a little cheapie Fender tuner clipped on the bridge. I didn't know that about tuners and operatic singing.. that does explain the last time I looked at some singing in Melodyne and found tones all over the place. I hadn't thought it through. An applied voice lab sounds like quite an interesting experience, hope you go into that more in the future too. Nothing like a good baritone! A cellist is someone who appreciates the baritone range! Nothing like that depth.

@@inkpapers-1 I will have some videos soon that will use the information I learned in the lab. They’ll be focused on overtones and tuning systems, which may or may not involve the StroboPLUS HDC :) Person does offer a clip on piezo pickup which can be used with your cello. Clip it to the bridge and plug it into the StroboPLUS HDC and you’re all set. www.petersontuners.com/shop/item/TP-3-Clip-On-Pickup

@@BobMakesMusic Thanks again Bob! Looking forwards to it!

The first four voices of the metronome: rimshot, clave, woodblock, and beep are quite loud. In this video I was wearing a lav mic under my shirt and I had to turn the volume of the HDC to about 1/3 to keep the mic from clipping while I filmed. The human voice sample is softer, but I still consider it a usable volume. I have no problem hearing the mechanical sounds over my double bass or while I am singing at full volume.

@@BobMakesMusic Thanks for the response! This sounds promising, I hope they start shipping soon.

@@boshi9 looking like early October. Larger online dealers are taking pre-orders now. You can sign up for shipping updates here: www.petersontuners.com/products/stroboplushdc/

They are very comfortable. I would recommend them for studying. For sleeping, Eargasm makes a foam plug which may be a better solution. eargasm.com/products/eargasm-foam-earplugs?variant=19653687967817

As a professional musician, my most valuable tools are my ears. I wear these to specifically NOT fuck up my hearing. I can still hear a full spectrum of sound, it’s just quieter. Definitely does not take away the feeling of that sub kicking you in the chest. Best part is after a show being able to drive home without that ringing in my ears and pressure in my head. I just played a 4 hour gig last week standing in front of a 6x10 bass rig with the drummer’s cymbals less than two feet away from my head. No ringing or hearing loss at all thanks to these.

You sold me on these. Just wish they had them in green to match my Yamaha 5 string bass!

Hello! I think the Slides are more comfortable over time. They have foam ear tips that form to your ear shape. That said, for plastic earplugs, the High Fidelity earplugs are rather comfortable. I don’t notice as much chewing sound in my ear when I speak or sing with the Slides and I do the High Fidelity. As far as attenuation the Slides are 22 dB reduction and the High Fidelity is 21 dB. Real life use though I think the High Fidelity cuts more lows and low mids than the Slides. The Slides seem more true to my ears. I hope that answers your question. They’re similar, but different.

itsglazed I’m glad this helped. I like having the slide function to flip between medium and maximum protection. As you know, things can get very loud in an orchestra. The Slide earplugs don’t filter out as much low and high frequency as some others that I’ve used. The spectrum is still rather full, just more quiet. I hope you like them as much as I do.

Details will be released soon for purchasing. I’ll keep you updated!

Thomas White and this was me speeding through so I didn’t make an hours long video. There are a lot of design elements that I left out. There are honestly so many tonal options, it really is versatile. Thank you.

Hi! I did receive these as a test pair from Eargasm. I have purchased three pairs of their High Fidelity earplugs in the past, and they reached out to me about trying the Slide earplugs. As I said in the video, I was bringing two pairs of plugs into the orchestra pit with me, my Eargasm HF, and another brand, and switching throughout the shows. Now I only need one pair, and I’m very happy with these.

Bob Makes Music thanks. I found them to block out too much sound while playing music.

smtesta you found the Slide earplugs to block too much sound or the High Fidelity?

Bob Makes Music - the Slides blocked too much sound. I play rhythm guitar and could barely hear my guitar. I have plugs similar to high fidelity and might purchase those to try out. The slides are really well made though and if they had silicon tips it might do the trick for me.

smtesta have you tried the Hearos High Fidelity? I found them to not lower enough db and they cut too much low for me as a bassist. They allowed a good amount of mid range and highs in, they may be a better fit for rhythm guitar.
