HOTONE has released a highly versatile multi-pedal that can serve four purposes!

HOTONE TUNER PRESS

Tuner, buffer, expression pedal, and volume pedal are all packed into one compact unit.

I want all of them, but they tend to take up space on the board and be expensive.

This is an innovative model that is likely to be seen more often on boards in the future.

TUNER PRESS is not just another tuner pedal. It is the ultimate in versatility. This 600g pedal is a multitasking pedal that combines the functions of a high-precision tuner, a high-quality buffer, a volume pedal, and an expression pedal. The foot switch provides a solid tactile feedback of the switch operation, and you can seamlessly switch between expression and volume control.

In volume mode, returning the pedal to the heel automatically activates silent tuning with 0.01 cent accuracy. The HD LCD screen and switching indicators provide an intuitive, accurate and fast user experience. In addition, the TUNER PRESS inherits the classic design of the popular Ampero Press series, seamlessly blending easy portability and practicality.

Product Features
  • Strobe tuner with incredible pitch detection accuracy of ±0.01 cents
  • Two tuner modes (strobe, chromatic)
  • High quality buffer amplifier with HI/LOW impedance switching
  • Multi-function: Tuner, buffer amplifier, volume, expression

Details of each function

Highest level of detection accuracy

The TUNER PRESS uses a new tuning algorithm to ensure high accuracy and improved responsiveness. The TUNER PRESS has two tuner modes: chromatic tuner mode and strobe tuner mode. When using the strobe tuner mode, it boasts a detection accuracy of +/- 0.01 cents, which surpasses other tuners.

Customizing operation and display modes

TUNER PRESS allows you to change the tuner's operation mode and display mode by flipping a switch to suit your playing style and preferences.

・T+S: The tuner is activated when the pedal is pressed toward the heel side, and the tuner is turned off at any other position.
・T: The tuner remains on in any position, even if the pedal is raised.
-T+P: Displays the tuner when the pedal is fully up, and shows real-time pedal movement in other positions.

High quality buffer and impedance switching

TUNER PRESS has switchable input impedance, matching the impedance of your guitar or effect to bring out the best sound. High impedance is suitable for instrument input such as guitar or bass, and the pedal is located at the beginning of the effect chain. Low impedance is suitable for effect or other device input, and the pedal can be placed in the middle or end of the effect chain to meet custom needs.

Vol pedal and Exp pedal all in one

The TUNER PRESS features separate EXP OUT and VOL OUT for versatile players. If your effect pedal only has one EXP connector and you want to use both expression and volume control at the same time, the TUNER PRESS is the perfect choice.
