Peterson StroboStomp Mini Pedal Tuner

Built for players who want Peterson precision without giving up pedalboard space, the StroboStomp Mini packs 0.1-cent strobe accuracy, over 80 Sweetened and Guided Tunings, top-mounted jacks, and flexible bypass/buffer options into a compact stainless-steel pedal tuner.

Why Players Choose It

Most pedal tuners make you choose between accuracy and footprint. The StroboStomp Mini doesn't. It's less than half the size of the StroboStomp HD — measuring just 94mm x 46mm x 33.5mm — yet delivers the same professional-grade Peterson strobe tuning engine trusted by touring guitarists, studio techs, and serious pedalboard builders worldwide. Top-mounted input and output jacks keep your cable routing clean and your board tight. If your board is crowded, this is the tuner that fits.

Professional Tuning Accuracy

The StroboStomp Mini uses Peterson's virtual strobe tuning technology to achieve ±0.1 cent accuracy — that's ten times more precise than most standard pedal tuners. The high-definition LCD strobe display shows flat/sharp movement in real time, so you can see exactly where your pitch is landing, not just a blinking LED. It's intuitive enough for players new to strobe tuning and precise enough for professional use. Once you tune with a Peterson, it's hard to go back.

Tone-Preserving Signal Options

The StroboStomp Mini gives you full control over how it sits in your signal chain:

• Pop-less True Bypass: When engaged, the tuner is completely removed from your signal path — no coloration, no loading. Ideal for players who want zero interference.
• Buffered Output Mode: Keeps your signal strong and stable across long cable runs and complex pedalboard setups. The buffer stays active even when the tuner is bypassed.
• Always-On Monitor Mode: Tune continuously without interrupting your signal — great for silent stage monitoring between songs.

Sweetened Tunings™ — What They Are and Why They Matter

Standard equal temperament tuning is mathematically correct, but it doesn't always sound right on real instruments. Peterson Sweetened Tunings™ apply subtle, instrument-specific pitch compensations so your guitar, bass, or other instrument sounds more naturally in tune to the human ear — especially when playing chords. The StroboStomp Mini includes over 80 Sweetened and Guided Tuning presets covering a wide range of instruments, alternate tunings, and playing styles. Select one and tune to it — no math required.

Easy to Use, Right Out of the Box

Plug in, stomp, and tune. The strobe display immediately shows you where your pitch is — strobe bands moving left means flat, moving right means sharp, standing still means you're in tune. The user-configurable display color and LED backlight make it easy to read on dark stages or in direct sunlight. Concert A reference is adjustable from 390Hz to 490Hz, and transposition range covers -6 to +5 semitones. Whether you're a first-time strobe tuner user or a seasoned pro, the StroboStomp Mini gets out of your way and lets you play.

Peterson Connect™

Connect the StroboStomp Mini to the free Peterson Connect app via USB-C (data-capable cable required) to access firmware updates, download additional Sweetened and Guided Tuning presets, organize your preset list, and customize your display settings. Peterson Connect enhances the experience but is not required for everyday use — the Mini works great right out of the box.
