Tuning The Guitar (Bypass/Tuner) - Boss ME-20 Owner's Manual

Tuning the Guitar (Bypass/Tuner)

The ME-20 features a built-in chromatic auto-tuner that allows you to tune your guitar easily
without changing any of your connections.
Additionally, in Tuner mode, the sound output is the same as the input sound, with no effects
applied (bypass). You can use the expression pedal to turn down the volume, making it
unnecessary for you to turn down your amp's volume each time you tune.
