Audio input
Connect your instrument to the IN jack on the
right side of the pedal.
The audio input of this pedal is a standard ¼”
jack (mono/TS).
When you connect your instrument to the audio
input, the following information will be displayed:
– Standard (“STD”) or Drop D tuning mode
– the currently selected display mode
(Needle / Strobe, Guitar / Bass)
– the currently selected tuning mode
– the reference pitch.
For best results, place PolyTune 2 in your signal
chain
before
your drive, distortion and vibrato
pedals. A distorted or modulated signal is harder
to analyze.
If the pedal runs on battery power, we recom-
mend removing your instrument from the audio
input to preserve battery power when you don’t
play.

jack (mono/TS).

Footswitch

Notes regarding tuning
and signal output
– When the tuner is active, the output will auto-
matically be muted for silent tuning.
– When the tuner is active and no signal is de-
tected, four red LEDs will light on the bottom
of the display, indicating that PolyTune 2 is
ready for tuning.
– PolyTune 2 features a true bypass circuit that
leaves your beloved tone unaltered when the
tuner is bypassed.
9.
Display
The LEDs of the PolyTune 2 display are extremely
bright; ensuring a clear readout even in broad
daylight.
The various display modes are explained in the
following section of this manual (“21st century
tuning: How to use PolyTune 2”).
10.
Ambilight sensor
In the lower right corner of the display is a so-
called ambilight sensor. It detects the strength of
the surrounding light and automatically adjusts
the display brightness accordingly. This ensures
you can see and correct your instrument’s tuning
under all conditions. This feature even extends
battery life by reducing display brightness to
what is required in a given situation.
