Accordatore fantastico molto preciso, visibile in maniera perfetta anche dal vivo

Added this to my live rig with a Kemper Stage, so I can monitor tuning during performance. Didn't need the bypass of the 'stomp', as I'm running off the line send, so I can still mute signal with Kemper Tuner/Mute button and this tuner is small enough that it sits nicely in the limited remaining space in a Thomann case. The Kemper strobe tuner is great, but nothing beats a Peterson for accuracy and sweetened tuning.

Works really well as an always-on device, which is exactly what I was looking for. The warranty registration process was a bit clunky, but I eventually got it completed. The instruction sheet was also somewhat difficult to follow at first.
Once registration was done, connecting the device to the web interface using the included USB cable worked very smoothly and ended up being much easier than the usual “press this while holding that” setup process.
Since the device offers a lot of features, some setup complexity is probably unavoidable. For my use, the difference between EQU and the Bass Sweetener tuning was pretty subtle, so I’ve mostly left it on EQU for general playing.
One unexpected note: I actually found AI explanations more helpful than the included instructions when learning how everything worked. Not necessarily a dealbreaker—just part of modern technology these days.

Works excellently. I have to say when I took it out of the box (nice presentation by the way - like an Apple product) I was happily impressed by the solid heft of the StroboVUE. It feels like something that will last a lifetime. Great design!

Finally I can properly tune my gear by knowing what octave I am in. Thank you Peterson.

This tuner exceeds all expectations.
Sharp, quick, and articulate.
Being able to match the display color to match the rest of my board was a cool bonus, but really what this does for me is step my game up to a major league level of pinpoint accuracy so that my team can count on me to provide the reliable backbone they need.

It works well, but I'm not satisfied with one thing. The instructions are very poor and only in English. So I wonder: do we all need to know English and how to operate non-standard products?

The StroboVUE with the TP-3 Clip-On Pickup is exactly what I have been waiting for in my shop. It now has a dedicated home on a bench, as it checks all the right boxes: Accuracy, Instantly Responsive, Small Form Factor, and is so Easy to Read. Don't get me wrong - I wouldn't want to be without my half-dozen or so StroboClip HD and HDC tuners. But the StroboVUE has become a must-have fixture in my shop. Thanks for another great product, Peterson!
