    Locking guitar tuners

    Of course, after all this "threat" of locking tuners and restringing and the like, it has stayed in tune near perfectly for the last couple of days 🙂
  15. Pretty sure they've used backing tapes at times (fair play - no criticism) so I don't feel this is a huge leap.
  16. Yep. There's a barely audible chorus-y effect at very high settings, but I can get that and more with more generic plugins.

    Locking guitar tuners

    The B and the E are the ones that stay in tune most though. G is worst (but badly wound - my bad for not checking and making an assumption) but the low E and A aren't amazing (IMHO).
  19. Create a new track view widget preset that hides the input gain?
  20. Barely does anything to audio. Meh.

    Locking guitar tuners

    The environment hasn't changed, but it's not in an ideal environment (if that makes sense - it's been this way for years). So that may be a factor. Also what might be a factor is my inability to actually look closely - I can "remember" restringing and it being OK, but when I looked at the G string last night (no sniggers at the back, please), it's truly awfully wound. So that's probably my problem. Don't I feel stupid? Seriously, I appreciate the replies here and I've learned a lot (including the luthier's knot, which I'd actually been doing by chance, just not very well!).

    Locking guitar tuners

    I haven't (actually getting to a guitar shop is tricky). Not that I've tweaked anything on it apart from electronics (and that was done many, many years ago before this problem started).
  23. Rangebooster is excellent (and free of course too!). The presets, however, are a bit "meh" in my opinion.

    Locking guitar tuners

    No trem. Mainly G string, but all barring top B and E aren't great. G can go noticeably flat after only a few minutes of playing (the others take longer). The strings are definitely well stretched and played in. The guitar is about 20-25 years old (eek...doesn't time fly?) and has been getting worse over the last year or so, which is why I thought tuners might be wearing in some way (and if I'm going to replace them, why not get locking ones anyway?).
