Do we really need to count tuners? I don't see any harm in considering that non-signal passing because when it's engaged the signal literally doesnt pass. It only passes signal if it's off and it doest affect the signal passing through ever.

 

 

If its a tuner pedal its a pedal.

I'm not sure how it would be punishment?


And we had this debate last year in the BOTB thread, where it was decided pedal tuners count toward the board pedal count
:idk:

 

Because its not a signal processor. In my opinion we should just count pedals that passively or actively manipulate the signal for musical effect. That's really the spirit of a pedal in this case and why a line switcher or volume pedal should still count.

I think because it's an accessory for another pedal, and not a specific pedal, in and of itself. A tuner pedal does something on its own. An expression pedal is worthless without it's mate.

Man some of you guys are really adament about your tuners counting as pedals. I don't get it. It's like a mandatory piece of gear that's expected and won't really be judged. Why count it towards the total and why only sometimes? If it's a pedal it should count if it's in a side chain too.
