Your new StroboStomp Mini pedal tuner may be powered by a regulated 9V DC power supply or via the USB-C connection on the top of the tuner.
WARNING: USING A WALL TRANSFORMER WITH THE INCORRECT POLARITY OR VOLTAGE MAY CAUSE PERMANENT DAMAGE TO THE TUNER!
For normal operation, the tuner can be used out of the box; no special adjustment is needed. After connecting a regulated 9V DC power supply, simply activate the StroboStomp Mini by inserting an instrument cable into the input jack of the tuner located on the right side of the top of the tuner. The output jack located on the left side of the top of the tuner can be used to connect the tuner to the input of an amplifier or another effects pedal. Use the Stomp Foot-Switch to mute the instrument’s signal and proceed to tune. When finished, use the Stomp Switch to unmute the signal and return to playing. When muted, a speaker icon with a slash will appear in the upper-left of the display to indicate the muted state.
If no mute icon is visible, the tuner is un-muted and signal will be present.
The note being tuned appears in the center portion of the screen. The strobe bands scroll counter-clockwise, or down, if your instrument is flat of the displayed note, and clockwise, or up, if your instrument is sharp of the displayed note. When the image is stabilized, your instrument is in tune to 0.1 cent accuracy of the displayed note.
If you are new to strobe tuners, you will notice that they are much more sensitive and accurate than your previous tuners. It’s OK if the strobe image doesn’t completely stop. It may shift slightly due to the ‘real-time’ feedback of a strobe tuner. For stringed instruments, it helps to use your finger or thumb to gently pluck the string instead of a plectrum.

I'm so glad you decided to listen to user feedback :) I have a little more feedback for live use if you ever do an update. It'd be awesome, if instead of a "tiny speaker with a slash" in the corner when muted, entire display changed color to show when one is muted (Since you have all these colors available, why not use them functionally?) When playing on stage, it's kind of hard to see whether that's engaged or not. For example, if it's a "serious" gig, I'm focused on the performance, and once I get on stage, I might not want to strum (for all to hear) to see if my guitar is muted or not. When you have all eyes on you, it's nice not to have to look down too closely at pedals... Instead, I could just see "The letters are white... I'm muted" . Just a thought, if you ever do an update :) Overall, great job! I'll be replacing my Polytune 3 with this, as I need a better tuner to intonate my guitars as well :)
Thank you for the feedback. We will definitely suggest this to our development team to see if it can be implemented in future firmware.
An absolute blast to see that the company of Peterson's magnitude listened to users' feedback and produced this marvel!
Thank you! We take customer feedback very seriously.
@@PetersonTuners - No, thank you! I just bought mine today!
I’m looking forward to trying it out!
Hi Peterson, can you tell me the input impedance for this StroboStomp Mini?
Hello, input impedance for StroboStomp Mini is 5M ohm in True Bypass, Buffered Bypass, and Monitor Mode.
Output impedance is 1k ohm when muted in all output modes, and 100 ohm when unmuted in Buffered Bypass and Monitor Mode. True Bypass output impedance is dominated by tip to sleeve of the input and does not factor into the load.
If i get a 9v 2.1mm to usb-c cable can i power the mini? (Or does the usb-c port need standard usb voltage?)
Thanks
Thank you for the question. The USB-C port operates at 5v. At this time, we cannot recommend any 9v barrel to USB-C cables to power via a 2.1mm pedalboard outlet. We are working toward a solution for this.
In the meantime, we recommend using a cell phone style USB charging power supply to power over USB or a pedalboard power supply with 5v USB output like Ciocks, Mission Engineering, or Fender Engine Room.
@@PetersonTuners thanks for your response. Last question, is the buffered bypass identical when powered for usb or 9v or is there something different between them, i.e "headroom" or something?
The buffer will function the same in both Buffered Bypass and Monitor Mode via 9v or USB power.
