Members AJS19 Posted May 18, 2009 Members Share Posted May 18, 2009 What do you guys think of this rack setup that i'm currently saving for: Furman M-8X Power Conditioner (Purchased)Voodoo Labs Audio SwitcherIn a 2 space rack drawer: OD pedal (Luther Drive?), Clean boost (Time Bomb Boost?), Carbon Copy Delay, Holy Grail Reverb, MXR Phaser, Russian Big MuffTech 21 MIDI Moose?Cheapo 6 Space Rack Case Recommend me a cheap but good rack tuner that has a mute function. I don't really feel like dropping $260 on a Korg DTR-2000. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members scaryfried Posted May 19, 2009 Members Share Posted May 19, 2009 What kind of stuff will you be playing? A rack reverb might be better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Connect the Send of any GCX loop to the Input of your tuner but do NOT connect the tuner's Output to the Return jack of the loop. This will effectively mute your signal while tuning because, while you are sending your guitar signal to the tuner, you aren't sending a signal back to the GCX. You can see an illustration of this on Page 8 of the GCX manual, which you can download for free at the Voodoo Labs web site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any recommendations for some budget tuners? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any recommendations for some budget tuners?I use a Peterson myself, but I'd suggest you do an eBay search for rack tuners, not necessarily to buy one, but to get an idea of what's out there that fits within your budget constraints...
