Tuner Mode - Blackstar Amplification ID:CORE STEREO 100 Manual De Uso

15. Master Volume
This controls the overall volume of your amplifier. Turning it clockwise increases the
volume. This is a global setting and is not saved when storing a patch. If the master
volume is at zero this allows for silent recording via the Emulated/Headphone Output
or USB. The emulated level is controlled via the preamp volume.
16. USB
Plug a USB cable in here to connect the amplifier to a Windows PC or Mac.
Blackstar's INSIDER software offers a host of features and can be downloaded
from: www.blackstarinsider.co.uk
See the USB Audio section on page 15 for more information.
NOTE: The amplifier will appear on a personal computer as an audio capture device
within recording software.
17. Manual
Press this switch to toggle between Manual Mode and the current patch. When the
amplifier is in Manual Mode, the sound will reflect the current physical position of the
knobs. This is applicable to the Voice, Gain, Volume, Bass, Middle, Treble and ISF
controls. Any effects that are active when switching to Manual Mode will be turned
off. While in Manual Mode any of the controls can still be modified by an external
source (Blackstar INSIDER software, footcontroller), but this means that the sound
will not represent the positions of the controls on the front panel.

Tuner Mode

Holding the Manual (17) switch for two seconds will engage the tuner. The Recall
Indicator LED (20) will flash continuously to indicate the amplifier is in Tuner Mode.
The amplifier output will be muted whilst in Tuner Mode.
The Voice LEDs will indicate the closest note to the note being played.
The MOD, DLY and REV LEDs act as indicators to show how close the played note
is to the tuned note.
MOD LED red
DLY LED green
REV LED red
All other LEDs on the front panel will be off in Tuner Mode.
Pressing any switch will exit Tuner Mode.

Note is sharp (above pitch)
Note is in tune
Note is flat (below pitch)
18. Bank
Press the Bank switch to scroll through the first three banks of patches.
Bank 1 -> Bank 2
Bank 2 -> Bank 3
Bank 3 -> Bank 1
The green LED indicates you're in Bank 1, the orange LED indicates you're in Bank
2 and the red LED indicates you're in Bank 3.
NOTE: The first three banks can be selected from the front panel. When you activate
Bank 4 and higher from an external controller (e.g. Blackstar INSIDER software,
footcontroller), the Bank LED will not be lit but the channel LEDs will continue to
show you the patch location. For example:
Patch 9 – Bank LED red, Channel 3 LED lit.
Pressing Bank UP from an external controller will switch you to Patch 12 – Bank
LED off, Channel 3 lit.
The channel will be remembered, therefore the corresponding patch within the
current bank will be loaded when scrolling through the banks.
When the amplifier is in Manual Mode, the Bank LED will not be lit.
19. Channels 1-3
Channel 1 activates the first patch within the currently active bank.
Channel 2 activates the second patch within the currently active bank.
Channel 3 activates the third patch within the currently active bank.
20. Recall Indicator
The Recall Indicator shows if there is a mismatch between the current value of a
parameter within the amplifier and the corresponding physical front panel control.
For example, when you change to a different patch the controls on the front panel
may not always reflect the setting you are hearing.
To prevent unexpected level jumps in the control you are adjusting, the front panel
knobs will have no effect on the sound until the knob reaches the current parameter
value. Once reached the Recall Indicator flashes twice and the knob 'takes control'
of the value and can increase or decrease the value.
The recall indicator will flash each time the physical knob 'passes through' the
currently active value that you are hearing.
Recall is active for Gain, Volume, Bass, Middle, Treble and ISF.
When the Tuner is active the Recall Indicator will flash continuously.
When looping, the Recall Indicator will flash once to show when the currently playing
loop has restarted. When a loop or overdub is being recorded, the Recall Indicator
will flash continuously.
