The NUX Strum Tuner is a tuner pedal made by NUX, a maker with several tuners in its range, including the NUX PT-6 Pedal Tuner, the Nux HD Pitch, the NUX Flow Tune and the NUX NTU-3 Flow Tune MKII. Like other pedals of its kind, it sits on a pedalboard and gives a player a reference for tuning, and it belongs to the wider family of tuner pedals1.

Circuit and power

The Strum Tuner's circuit is analog, according to RockBoard's PedalPedia listing for the pedal1. That puts it on the analog side of a market where many tuner pedals, such as the BOSS TU-3s Tuner or the TC Electronic PolyTune 3 Noir, are digital designs.

Power comes from a 9V DC supply with center negative polarity, the standard arrangement for compact pedals, and the pedal draws 12mA1. That is a light draw, so it fits comfortably alongside other pedals on a shared supply. The pedal's English manual is available online through ManualsLib1.

Where it sits in NUX's tuner range

NUX makes several tuners, and the Strum Tuner is one of the smaller entries in that range. Players comparing it within the brand can look at the NUX PT-6 Pedal Tuner, the Nux HD Pitch, the NUX Flow Tune and the NUX NTU-3 Flow Tune MKII, each of which takes a different approach to the same job1.

Questions

Is the NUX Strum Tuner analog or digital?

The Strum Tuner is an analog pedal. RockBoard's PedalPedia listing for the pedal gives its circuit type as analog, which distinguishes it from the many digital tuner pedals on the market. For a player, an analog circuit in a tuner pedal generally means the signal path stays simple, and the pedal's power draw is modest at 12mA.

How is the NUX Strum Tuner powered?

The Strum Tuner runs on 9V DC with a center negative polarity, the same standard supply used by most compact pedals. Its current draw is listed as 12mA, which is light enough for a typical daisy-chain or isolated supply. The pedal's English manual is available online for full setup details.
