This customer purchased the item at our site.
Bass Mode was the main reason I bought this tuner.
It works fine in standard E A D G tuning.
But it doesn’t seem to recognize any sharps or flats, other tunings like C F A# D#
I tried in the guitar modes with the same results.
Only works in Chromatic but the results are variable on the thicker bass strings
I contacted Nux about this & they confirmed that:
"The bass mode is specifically optimized for standard EADG tuning and doesn't work well with C F A# D# tuning. For special tunings, you'll need to use the Chromatic mode. I understand your frustration."
I asked them that if that was the case, this wouldn't work for a 6 string Bass.
And they later confirmed saying "I want to clarify that a 6-string bass can indeed be used with our product; it just needs to be set to chromatic mode for proper functionality". The same goes for those tune their guitars differently.
They never mentioned any of this in their advertising & product details. They offered no apologies. Just a "If this doesn’t meet your needs, I recommend returning it for a refund or exchanging it for another pedal."
But that costs me time & money to return the product & its a bit of a cop out on Nux behalf. And all they could say in the end is "Thank you for your understanding".
Thanks for nothing!!!! So my final opinion is Nux Sux.
Advantages: It works fine in standard E A D G tuning.
Disadvantages: But it doesn’t seem to recognize any sharps or flats, other tunings like C F A# D#
