I just saw one of those at a guitar show in Edmonton; someone was selling off their GR300 along with some odds and ends, so they are floating around in this part of the world too. He was asking $80.

Korg PX5D -  $99 here:

    http://www.activemusician.com/item--EM.PX5D

    Shipping is extra $, and Music123 wouldn't price-match,  - but many go to their local Guitar Center and picked them up for $99

These make excellent guitar practice rigs, Amp Simulator with programmable backing drums and bass  / Real Time External Stereo Audio Transposser , 80 second Phrase Trainer, Footpedal Input jack, and (not too well known) the Korg PX5D also works as a stereo IPAD USB Audio Interface for Ipad IOS Garageband, etc  - using nothing more than the PX5D + Apple Ipad Camera Kit USB adapter. (Powered USB Hub is not needed)

I actually like the  Pandora PX5D's Amp Modelling (excellent Vox AC-30 emulation), and the harmonizer works very well too.
More info on the Korg PX5D as Ipad Audio Interface is here:

In celebration of the 2nd Anniversary, TC Electronic Polytune is on sale for 99 cents.



PolyTune® for iPhone®


PolyTune® for iPhone works with the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad.

http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/polytune/id364009203?mt=8

The PolyTune® iPhone app is a 1:1 port of the award-winning PolyTune® pedal tuner, and it offers the exact same, patents pending tuning technology and amazing features as the pedal version.

In short, guitar tuning has been revolutionized at a stroke - or strum - with PolyTune®, the world's first polyphonic guitar tuner. This cutting-edge technology revolutionizes tuning and accomplishes what has been deemed impossible until now: tuning all strings simultaneously - it's as simple as: Strum. Tune. Rock!

Where the PolyTune® pedal is the perfect live solution, the iPhone version ensures perfect and swift tuning whenever you're off-stage - and with the iPhone's built-in microphone, polyphonic tuning is now available for acoustic instruments, too! The PolyTune app is fully compatible with iPhone4, iOS 4 and provides full Retina display support for the ultimate viewing experience when you're tuning.



The magic lies in a never before seen approach to tuning aimed at speed, accuracy and ease of use. With PolyTune® for iPhone, you simply strum all strings on your guitar or bass at once, and it immediately tells you which strings to tune, allowing you to get in tune fast, and back to doing what you love the most: playing.




Fever Pitch
Equally effective for guitar and bass, PolyTune® for iPhone is extremely flexible as well. The reference pitch can be set to your preference and ranges from 435Hz to 445Hz. This guarantees you'll be able to play along with anyone, with any instrument and in any situation.

Drop it like it's hot

If you are a guitarist that likes to play at a different pitch than standard, this is the perfect tool, allowing for dropped tunings from E-flat all the way down to B. Whatever your pitch or tuning, PolyTune® for iPhone is a sure-fire way to be spot-on, with an accuracy of just plus/minus 0.5 cent.

PolyTune App Screens
            


Chromatic champion

Besides the Polyphonic tuner, PolyTune® for iPhone has a chromatic tuner that can hang with the best current tuning technology out there, but we are never satisfied with the current norm and added some features to make this tuner's chromatic section stand out from the crowd.

Tuning modes
Let's start with the two separate chromatic tuning modes, which cater to your individual preferences and needs. Needle mode is for those who are used to the classic view on a tuner. If you want a little more real-time information, we have included stream-mode, which measures even the slightest pitch variation and instantly feeds the info back to you via a rotating motion on the display.

Tuning Magnet
Key to both these great chromatic modes is an ultra-fast and precise response, which is achieved by the use of the unique tuner magnet feature. This slows down the needle once you get close to the desired pitch, making it much easier to get the job done quickly.

MonoPoly
Whether you want to use the polyphonic tuner to get in tune, or prefer to go the chromatic route, this pedal has you covered. PolyTune® for iPhone features 'MonoPoly', a unique patent-pending technology that recognizes whether you play one or more strings and instantly switches to the appropriate tuning mode.

Swap the colors
PolyTune for iPhone also has a 'colorblind' feature that allows you to swap the default green/red colors with yellow/blue. Just choose whatever suits your eyes the best.


The making of PolyTune® iPhone AppTuning as it should be
PolyTune® for iPhone was our chance to build the ultimate tuning tool from the ground up and finally get rid of some of the current tuner drawbacks that guitarists run into time and time again. Tuners have been around for some 30 odd years and we felt it was high time they got in tune with today's guitarists.




We can't make tuning fun. But we can sure make it a whole lot easier.

How to make a stomp box PolyTune® from the PolyTune® iPhone AppWe want to do our part for the guitar community and truly innovate the life of guitarists. And with PolyTune® for iPhone's extraordinary features and cutting-edge technology, we feel we have accomplished just that. We are passionate guitarists ourselves and we work every single day to make all our lives easier and more rocking. We did it for multi-effects with G-Force, G-Major2, Nova System and G-System, we did it for stomp boxes with the Nova series, and now PolyTuneTM is here to give tuning a much needed kick in the A440!

I love it. Really great app.

You're welcome! I was glad to see it go on sale, too.  I didn't have an iPhone, back when they were free.

If anyone needs the stomp box, they are currently 49% off at Hello Music ($75):

I was lucky enough to get it when it was free, same as the Peterson iStroboSoft.  It's weird that the TC app works better, IMO, than the Peterson whereas I find the opposite to be true with the hardware versions.  Maybe it has to do with mic sensitivity, but the Peterson app seems to have an "in tune" indent which is contrary to the whole strobe idea.  Anyways, the Polytune app has been my goto tuner, as far as app tuners go, for a couple years now.  Not as accurate as my Peterson hardware tuners IME, but great in a pinch. 

Bill Ruppert

I missed the free one as well but 99 cents is a deal!
Looks like TC is coming out with a smaller version of the tuner at namm.
