Comment on Behringer BTR2000 2-Channel Rack Tuner by Rattan

Review by Rattan for Behringer BTR2000 2-Channel Rack Tuner Rating: Purchased one from a local music store for $60, returned it the next day for a refund. Has a cool look and some nice features but for tuning bass I was extremely disappointed in its performance, even when set for bass it didn't seem to make a difference. I tried it in my rack system using the tuner out feature from my amp head into one of the rear input jacks. With all of my other pedal-style tuners connecting it this way works great but with this unit I found its sensitivity to be low and very slow to track notes. It had a very hard time locking into anything below open string A, barely even finding low E and forget about "D" tuning on the E string it just didn't work. Works better if using harmonics to tune but I found that to be inconsistent when compared to my other tuners. I even tried direct in from bass to front input jack and it wasn't much better. For tuning "on the fly" it's useless because of the slow sample rate, I would not use this on a gig. For tuning guitar and other higher frequency instruments it will probably work as designed, but for bass save your money on this one or spend a little more for a better quality brand unit.

Review by Rick Young for Behringer BTR2000 2-Channel Rack Tuner Rating: I purchased the Behringer BTR2000 2-Channel Rack Tuner to replace a Korg rack mount tuner I had purchased in the mid 90's. So far I have not had great difficulties with it, however it does not register the low-b of my 5-string bass. I can tune my top four then have to do that one by ear. Not a major problem unless I want to tune it on stage during a show as I hate doing that. If I have to tune on stage, I prefer muting my bass so the crowd doesn't listen to it. Other than that it's been a good unit. I was pleasantly surprised as I did not know it had lights in it, so considered that a bonus for me. I'll recommend it for guitarists and four string bassists wanting a rack mount tuner, but will advise 5-string bassists you might want to check out some other units to see if it will find your low b.

Review by M. Desmond for Wittner Taktell Piccolo Metronome: Black Rating: This metronome is easy to use (my 9yo adjusts it for each piece she is practicing), and works great. Highly recommend it.

Review by Damion Johnston for Wittner Taktell Piccolo Metronome: Black Rating: I purchased mine in 1986 when I began studying Classical Guitar seriously...

...years later (it's now 2010) I just wind it up and it keeps my tempo just as well as it did 24 years ago.

One thing, special, that I always appreciated is that it lists the bpm (beats per minute) for all the classic Italian tempo terms: Largo...Adagio...Allegro...etc., and gives you the range. Printed handy, right there on the face. Did you know that when I'm healthy, my heart beats at a steady Largo: 40-60bpm

Thanks Wittner!

Review by Scott Fahey for Wittner Taktell Piccolo Metronome: Black Rating: I'm very pleased with this metronome. I bought this to help me during my piano practice. It is loud enough to hear over the sound of the piano, but it isn't obnoxiously loud. I didn't really need a compact model, but I choose this one anyway because it had good reviews on other sites and it was less expensive that the larger models.

Review by Christina M. for Cherub WMT-555C Tuner and Metronome with Pickup Rating: I'd love this if it hadn't broke after my second time using it. I replaced it with a "Tune Tech" TT-500 and love that one.

Review by Juan Pablo Jaruf for Cherub WMT-555C Tuner and Metronome with Pickup Rating: I bought this item and in a matter of 3 days had it in my house, so it was a pretty good delivery coming from NY to UT, which usually takes a long time. The tuner is VERY slow, it keeps showing a tunning light even if you just finished playing the string for like 2 seconds. But, beyond that, if you have patience, which I had to have since it was the only tuner I had, it works just fine, and...you're not gonna be tunning your guitar everyday I guess.. Unless you get new strings.. OK and the metronome, is what I use the most. it has a lot of modes for different rhythms like 3/4 4/4, as the most common, but more that I haven't used yet. Ah! you can tune you guitar in like 4 or 5 different pitches, which I only used the most common. Oh the microphone isn't very sensitive, so it's way better to use the vibration sensor, which sadly comes with a VERY thin cable, so I have to be very careful, and treat it with a lot of love if I want it to last. For the price it was a good buy. I recommend it if you're a beginner like me.
