What it does
The Rowin LT-901 is a chromatic tuner pedal. A chromatic tuner listens to the signal from your guitar or bass and shows you the nearest note and how far sharp or flat you are, so you can tune any string to any pitch rather than to a fixed set of presets. It sits in your signal chain like any other pedal, and its job is to get you in tune quickly between songs or while setting up1.
The same unit appears in some catalogs under the Koogo name, as the Koogo Tuner LT-901. If you are comparing listings or shopping for one, both names refer to the same pedal1.
Rowin is the maker behind it; the brand also builds other compact effects such as the Rowin Ocean Verb and the Rowin Auto Wah.
Where a tuner fits on an acoustic board
For players building an acoustic rig, a tuner is usually the first utility pedal on the board, ahead of preamps and effects. Typical neighbors include:
- The Zoom AC-2 Acoustic Creator
- The Boss AD-10
- Other compact Rowin pedals such as the Rowin AC Stage
See the Rowin brand page for the rest of the company's line.
