Wondering if anyone can recommend a good product/way to set up an acoustic guitar (going to DI) and an electric guitar (going to amp). wanting to plug them into one tuner on a pedal board and mute one while using the other. i see the KORG Pitchblack+ tuner has two inputs but doesn't appear to have separate outputs. http://www.korg.com/us/products/tuners/pitchblack/
thanks. |

I think you're asking for something kinda oddball. Like one tuner, two separate signal paths?? Don't think that's done.
You could try just a Y cable coming out of the tuner.

If the loop master guys don't have a switch that would do this for you, they would make one....and there are standard dual-Y switch pedals that would do it, but you'd have to hit two buttons to switch both input and output....feed the single output of switch 1 into the tuner and then into the single input of switch 2.

You probably would have a cheaper and more reliable setup with two tuners and no switches - just tap both tuners to switch, use the tuner mute ability to handle it. You could put them close enough to hit both with one tap...

| For about ten bucks it's hard to beat a clip-on Snark. Just keep a supply of button batteries in your bag, and you'll never again have to worry about cables or power supplies. |

I also was looking for a way to connect 2 instruments to a single tuner and still have 2 separate output paths. After considering several options, I came to the same conclusion that Steve alluded to - trying to eliminate the 2nd tuner won't save much pedal board real estate or money and may actually decrease reliability and ease of operation. I ultimately decided on a separate tuner for each instrument.
That being said, if you went with a 2 input tuner (like the Pitchblack you mentioned) you could connect an A/B switch to the tuner output to route the electric to the amp and acoustic to the DI. You would still have the same pedal count - just trading a tuner for an A/B switch.

I think I'd put a Snark on the flattop and leave the tuner in the steel line
