December 13, 2000Sabine, Inc. has announced two road-worthy professional rack-mount tuners that are as fast and accurate as they are versatile and easy-to-read.
The Sabine RT-7000 and feature-packed RT-7100 Professional Rack Tuners offer dual-mode, super bright Swoop LED Displays that give the best visual cue for easy tuning, especially from a distance. Standard Mode shows instrument pitch as a bar graph - the more LEDs lit, the further the note is from in tune. Strobe Mode shows moving sweep of pitch - LEDs strobe left for flat, right for sharp and slow to a stop when instrument is in tune. Both are more accurate than conventional needle-style LED displays.
Making life easy on the road is a Sabine thing, and the RT-7100 does just that with its A/B SmartSwitch. Whether you patch two guitars to one amp or one guitar to two amps, the RT-7100 automatically senses the input/output configuration and adjusts the A/B switch to conform to your setup. A/B switching on both the RT-7100 and the economical RT-7000 can be accomplished using the front panel A/B switch or a foot pedal - so there’s no need to buy a conventional A/B box!
Fully chromatic with automatic note sensing, both tuners have a 7-Octave range and are perfect for guitar and bass - all the way down to a low A!
Tuning in the real world isn’t always cut-and-dry, so the RT-7000 and RT-7100 tuners flat tune up to 4 steps below standard pitch. Moreover, overall calibration of the tuners is adjustable from 435 to 445 Hz.
Packed with user-friendly features, the RT-7000 and RT-7100 tuners have a Mute switch for silent tuning, selectable with a foot switch or on the front panel.
Furthermore, dual input/output jacks on the front and back panel of the RT-7100 allow convenient access and increased versatility. The RT-7100 even has a built-in microphone for tuning acoustic instruments without plugging in.
The RT-7000 and RT-7100 Rack Tuners are built for rugged road use with a heavy-duty metal case and the famous Sabine two-year warranty. And they’re made in the USA.
The RT-7000 has an MSRP of $219.95 and the deluxe RT-7100 has an MSRP of only $299.95. For more information, visit their web site at www.sabine.com. |
