Description: |
| Multiband
tuner with two stage frequency measurement for higher accuracy and
stability. |
| |
| How to
use: |
To
tune your guitar press on
the Left E button to start with, then play the sixth string open, and
watch what the blue horizontal bar on the tuner does. It will tell you
whether you need to increase or decrease the pitch of the string. The
longer the bar the more out of tune that string is. When the bar is
small and in the middle it means that string is close to being in
tune. The In tune light illuminates when the string is exactly tuned.
Next press the A button and then tune the 5th string.
Then repeat this
process for the other four strings.
After striking a note the tuner
can give a false initial result for the first moment but it settles
down after that. Always make sure the input level is high, this makes
the tuner easier to read.
You can change the
key of the tuner, here's a list of some of the supported tunings:
