Leave it to Mark to do the best tuner review I’ve ever seen where the intro music is fire 🔥 and actually has the mute and buffered options highlighted. Mark your reviews just keep getting better, super complete, and comprehensive. Great work! I finished this video imagining how to fit it into my rig. You explained and showed the UI so well.
That's pretty handy! But I don't think you can put more than like 6 songs onto that screen IF you don't want to use a magnifying glass to read the setlist haha
I've used a TU-2 for 15 years.. Then recently took it off when I got the LVX. If I needed one tho, this would be it. Walrus is constantly killing it. Easily my fave all around pedal company.
For a second I thought that the setlist image was a feature that let you change tuning presets based on a song and in order. Source does this with their soleman midi controller and its awesome for a live scenario. Could see walrus using a long press to open "setlist mode". Seems like a second footswitch would be super handy here as well. Would be great for changing presets, a la Slotva or the 1 series Would also love to see midi on here if they're going all in wih the ultimate tuner so I could change tuner settings based on program changes. The one killer feature its missing that might prevent me from switching from my polytune is the power output. Comes in handy way more than I thought it would
I’m still waiting for a programmable preset where I can set a precise pitch per string for the case where I want to split the difference between up and down the neck intonation, which, to my knowledge, does not exist in any tuner.
Turbo Tuner can do individual string/note offsets of up to +/- 50 cents in 0.1 cent increments and save five presets of different offset configurations.
I have been using a Korg NTS-2 with my synth and modular setup and yeah, a spectrum analyzer for guitar would be incredibly useful when building loop based music or diagnosing issues with live setups in venues
It would be really cool, except Peterson exists. Kinda hard to come in at the same price as the Strobostomp HD without the long legacy that Peterson brings to the table (and absolutely delivers on). It's not that it's necessarily bad so much as for the same price, Peterson is a no brainer.
This is not made for the same people who would buy the Peterson. This is considerably more feature rich (for the same price). And Walrus Audio has developed a very good name in the industry. I could understand comparing them if they were aimed at the same audience and/or had the same feature set with one being a newer brand and the other being more established but none of those things are true in this case haha.
@@brandongullion6353 lets hope for Walrus Audio's sake you are correct. However, for those who want a tuner to do its primary job better than anything else.... 😁 I mean if it was a killer blender that'd be kinda cool as well, but most people buy a tuner to tune with. haha
I bought a Peterson Storbostomp 2 back in the day and it was the worst tuner i ever had, even compared to contemparies at the time. Massive footprint, terrible unbacklit display, slow processing compared to TU-2 and 3, ugly enclosure etc. Sold it as soon as i got a bite. Peterson have definitely made some crap tuners in the past
Nah they’re both good. Peterson is probably still the best strobe out there in terms of pure “I need the fastest and most accurate strobe on the market” but the walrus one is still a very good / quick / accurate tuner bolstered by just a really strong suite of other features.
Not really exciting but this is fan service. Now you can have a 100% Walrus board if you want. Honestly not sure why all pedal companies don't do this. Gotta please the super fans for free marketing!
Dang the tone of that tuner is unmatched
I hear they gooped the needle so nobody could copy it

All jokes aside, the digital setlist display is a really cool idea.

Perhaps one of your best intro jams ever.. I'm floored.
Me after that intro: 💀
Having the power input on the side kind of defeats the point of top mount jacks imo.

Ive still got my TU3 that I bought when I first started out. Gotta appreciate the truly bulletproof nature of Boss pedals.

Great review,
My prayers have been answered

Never thought of this but it would be useful, especially if you coudl save presets for different guitars
Turbo Tuner can do individual string/note offsets of up to +/- 50 cents in 0.1 cent increments and save five presets of different offset configurations.
How does it compare to the Peterson Strobostomp? So far nothing touches this.
Mark what did you use for drums in the opening? Sounds great.
Mixwave Aaron Gillespie + UA Neve summing, atr tape, and an api2500 bus comp.
A spectrum analyzer and level meter would have been useful.

it's a fucking tuner man chill
oh I see what you did there.
I kinda wish the guitars would've been completely out of tune for the outro song, since you bypassed the tuner xD
Is it noisy?
I'm not hearing anything but bass and drums in the intro music.
I honestly thought I was going crazy.
That’s the point lol. It’s a troll intro because the tuner is a mute switch when activated lmao
Is it just me or is there no audio for the guitars in the intro just the bass and drums?
That’s the joke…
@@Floppa-oz1kp lol oh ok right over my head
That true bypass is so fat

What is it?
NO SPOILERS (or just google it)

Its kinda cool
Better than Peterson Strobostomp????
Better than a hundred thousand Peterson Strobostomps
@@markjohnstonofficial is it noisy?
Noisier than a hundred thousand Peterson Strobostomps.
@@markjohnstonofficial 😂 ok ok

☠
I don't even want the review to start ....
only care about the intro track
How is a brand new tuner a secret weapon 🤦🏻♂️
1. It’s the name of the series.
2. Really, a tuner is the MOST secret of all the weapons.
Ill keep my strobo stompZ
is this real ???? and can I tun my guitar with it ????
Believe it or not
