Tuner Out

[cmcnamara]

Hi all,

I have a very quick question regarding my 2 year old Mark V since I haven't done too much experimentation with my pedals.

Is there any advantage to using a tuner pedal on the tuner out rather than in front of the amp? To me it seems the only advantage is mute, which a lot of tuner pedals will already do. Help?

I thought the advantage with the tuner out is that it doesn't mute and it's for rack unit type tuners. I may be wrong.

I'll keep it first on my pedal board though, because I don't want to run "yet another" cable just for my tuner to plug into a tuner out...hehe.

The advantage is that it keeps your tuner out of the signal path.

Hmmmm....I guess that'd be cool for a rack tuner. I like getting the buffer on my tuner pedal so I suppose I'll keep it in front of the amp.
