Operating; Tuner - Panda-Audio Future Impact v3 User Manual

Operating the Future Impact v3
The FI has 99 sounds (programs) distributed across 10 banks: bank 0 has 9 sounds, all
other banks have 10. You can step up through the banks by ​ p ressing ​ the EDIT/BANK UP
dial. Furthermore, if you press and hold this dial and turn it, you can quickly move up or
down to any bank.
Sounds are selected with the PROGRAM footswitch. A single press will move up by one
program, a double press will move down by one. If you press and hold this footswitch, the
number will scroll up, first slowly, then faster. If you hold this footswitch after a double press,
the number will scroll down in the same manner. In this Program-Selection Mode, known as
DIRECT Mode, moving up and down through the program numbers will seamlessly step over
the bank borders so that you can access any of the 99 programs using just the one
footswitch.
Note:​ The FI is based on the detection of the bass/guitar's pitch. To function correctly, it
requires monophonic notes that are played cleanly. If you play chords, power chords, use
slapping or tapping techniques, or try to use it outside of the pitch range of the selected
instrument then unpredictable results will occur.

Tuner

The FI includes a very high-quality, fast-response tuner that uses the advanced pitch

one second. The tuner can be activated from both the ON and OFF states and in either case
the audio output will be completely muted. In the display, the first digit shows the note name
and the second digit shows (an approximation of) the ​ # ​ sign. The third digit shows the
fine-tune value using one or more of the three horizontal lines as follows:
To exit tuner mode, press ON/OFF briefly and the FI will return to the ON state.
