Using the Tuner Function

This unit is equipped with a tuner function. In addition to manual
tuning, you can also use it as a chromatic tuner.
* Use manual tuning when the strings are substantially out of tune (such
as after changing strings).
Manual Tuning
1.
Press the TUNER button.
The unit enters the Tuner mode and the TUNER switch
lights up. Once in the Tuner mode, no sound is played from
the speaker, the REC OUT/PHONES jack, or the LINE OUT
jack.
* The sound input to the AUX IN jack is output.
2.
Use the TYPE switch to select the string that
you want to tune.

Chromatic Tuning
If you press the TUNER button for one full second or more, the

a "chromatic tuner," which automatically determines the name
of the note closest to the one played.

a single note on the string that you want to tune. Tune the string
until the green indicator lights.
