FAQ
“I’m not hearing anything!”
When the tuner is active, the output will be mut-
ed for silent tuning.
“The pedal has power supply,
but pressing the footswitch
doesn’t do anything!”
To operate PolyTune 2, you need to connect an 
instrument to the pedal’s audio input jack.
“The display shows a red ‘#’ –
what does this mean?”
This is the symbol of the Secret Brotherhood of 
the Tune-O-Calypse of Doom – and it is telling 
you that you are not playing loud enough… 
Just kidding. This symbol shows that your Poly-
Tune 2 is not bypassed and ready to display the 
pitches of your instrument’s strings. Please note 
that this also means that PolyTune 2’s audio out-
put is muted. To unmute, press the footswitch.
“How do I get the best
(most accurate) results?”
We have found that you will achieve the most 
accurate tuning of electric guitars in polyphonic 
mode by selecting the guitar’s neck pickup and 
using the thumb to strum the strings.
