What's it for?

My volume pedal has a 3rd socket labelled Tuner. What is it for?

Sorry if it's a stupid question but if you don't ask...

You can connect your tuner to the VP while playing, you can then check your tuning as you play...

Tuners " usually" modify the sound of the instrument
Specific Pro Volume pedals have a 2nd output - which is most often used for the tuner
the poor bugger's out on his own rather than having him " in the chain "
