Awful
I was trying to tune an electric guitar with a capo in the 4th fret. It could not tune it properly at all. It was completely, bafflingly out of tune. I plugged in my boss tuner and had it tuned perfectly in about 30 seconds. I have never used a more useless tuner in my life. So weird.
D. Martindale
umm how do I buy this?
genuinely just need to tune a bass in console....
N. Stuckey
Doesn't work.
If you missed out on buying this, be thankful. It simply doesn't work. Not only does the needle jump around and never stay in one spot long enough, it doesn't know what note is being played. I play my E (yes, checked with other tuners and an electric piano to be sure) and it is showing F#. Not even close to being useful. POS app IMHO

You're all wrong!
Normally, I would agree wholeheartedly with all the one star reviewers who point out that this most basic of plugins should be included free. But what you guys don't understand is that this BX tuner really is BS. Really, it's quite awful. A cheapo clip-on will give you better results. The needle basically never calms down. It's like a nervous chihuahua, jumping around like it needs to pee toute de suite. Just having rough and fine tuning increments is not enough. If a tuner goes from "almost" to "precise", it needs to slow down eventually and allow you to approach perfection very gingerly. This thing hunts and jumps like a gnat on a triple espresso. It never seems to get you in the ball park. Reliably, the results are off. If it was free, it'd be too expensive. This way, it's just a joke that's best ignored completely.

No UA tuner?
Just came into the UA ecosystem after leaving the dumpster fire that is Waves. So far I've been liking it. Then I tried to find a (free/inexpensive) tuner to use in Console...

How can I buy it?
There is no buy button on the page
B. Duvall
wow. just wow.
today for the first time ever i decided i was going to buy the most unfairly priced plugin in the whole UAD system: a tuner that should be free but costs what like 60 bucks usually? cant remember. probably more. but i was ready to buy it. NOW, its not even available to buy by itself? i have to buy a whole bundle to TUNE A GUITAR OR BASS? thats plugged into UAD? i mean come ON! that is ridiculous. glad it gave me a reason not to purchase.

単体で販売してください。
私以外にもたくさんの方が書き込まれていますが、単体で販売して欲しいです。このチューナーを手に入れるためだけにアンプシミュレーターのバンドルを買わなきゃいけないのはおかしいです。
J. de la Torre
A tuner should be included
So sad you have to buy a 200€ pack for this, there should be a UAD tuner
K. Linnik
cannot buy it separately?
UA, that's is so, erm, strange I cannot buy only this plugin (needless to say maybe that one should be for free?)
J. Cloud
Should be included for free
As all have said, not including at least a basic tuner isn't a good look for UA.
T. Toews
UA needs a free tuner
I will never ever pay money for this or be excited because it is included for free in a bundle
S. Vakis
Should be free or available as a stand alone plugin
Agreeing with everyone else here. Either make this free with console, or at least sell it as a stand alone 30$ plugin. DSP is slowly dying anyway, but a DSP tuner before your chain is a perfectly fine usage for it.

Eko eko eko....
what others say here. Not having access to a tuner without buying a bundle just feels really grubby. But then, Luna has no video facility. These scenarios should not be a work in progress but a total given. Seem's strange that now you made the leap to 'native' that using many elements of UAD means switching between DAW's. It's impossible to get everything right but, a tuner and a video facility is so basic. Just an idea, but put a call into brainwork and by the end of the working day we'll all be able to buy a tuner for $30. Or you could design your own in 24hrs. With a valve in it. Joking.

this should be included

C. Pendleton
Come on UA!
This should be included, not as a tag on, to force you to buy some 300 guitar plugin package. REALLY?!!
c. rosario
Insane , No Tuner
How about UAD creating a simple Tuner , with the next console update ,
and it should be free .
I don't think this is much to ask for , Thank you .j. dee

Trial license got werdly expired in 1 day - LUNA should have a built in tuner!
I’m super sad that Luna doesn’t have a tuner and this tuner was the only option I found. I activated the trial and it got expired in one day. Tested the tuner only once.
M. Hadley
Yea why is there no free tuner in console?
Pretty ridiculous
