Will we ever see "Sweetened" Tunings on the KPA?

Agreed but in the meantime rather than use an external tuner would it not be just as easy to tune to the specific offset number in the KPA? For example if the sweatened tuning requires the G string to be say 3 cents sharp tune to the G but +3 on the display rather than exactly in tune.

The same has been requested before by multiple people, myself included. I have several guitars that are set up wit the Buzz-Feiten tuning system. Reality however, is that I usually play 2-4 different guitars on a gig and another global setting is easily forgotten as I swap instruments. If it was to be usable it would have to be a per-rig-setting, or even better coupled with an ingenious system that would automatically identify each guitar by analysing impedance or similar. It is possible to discover pickup-characteristics by analysing responses to signals across certain frequency-bands. That is complicated to begin with, and different pickup-combinations and pot-adjustments doesn't make it any easier. For now it is much easier to memorise the required offsets and tune to those manually.

Would love to see this!

If you are worried about these fine margins, maybe it is time to look at an Evertune equipped guitar? It is such a relief to stop worrying about tuning live.

I still use my Peterson Stomp Classic as a first pedal, before my Digitech Drop and Kemper. I haven't used the Kemper tuner at all, other than to see how it works.

I've begged for this in the past, but no word yet. I just have a dedicated tuner with more capability on a little board with a great compressor and drive pedal.

Same here, I have Peterson tuner hooked up to analog out for recording, live, I don't care really, Kemper tuner is good enough. I don't use any buzz fainted things tho.

I hope not

Tuning is over rated...if you turn up the volume it all balances out..or blame the bass player...

I feel the same about the stuff that you want added to the Kemper. ?

It's not something I personally need but I can't see any downside to it to help out those that do.

Surely it should be straight forward...the ability to store different tuner configs. At present its a chromatic tuner but being able to store different tunings ( Bass, sweetened, alternate tunings) could be useful, although you'd have to select each string to tune...

It is probably a matter of priorities and the amount of resources available when they are still bringing us OS7 and the editor. Following that there was talk of overdrive updates and the list goes on for a wish list.

It might be a simple, low resource solution...to be able to store a custom tuning but yeah so many other things..

JT Tuning:

-3

-6

-4

-8

-10

-12

I use the JT method when I'm going to be playing solo acoustic with a capo. You can say what you like, but it sounds a lot nicer to me.

Interesting video. I am constantly using Melodyne to tune 5 string bass players low string and they could do with observing this method.

Many guitar players that are down tuning already play slightly flat on the low string by ear. I guess hitting the string harder when tuning up would also help counteract the problem?

I thought that was just a really big tuner! Doh

The magnifying glass probably cost more than a big tuner.
