Metronome Tuner Instructions
The Metronome/Tuner is equipped with a condenser
microphone and a 1/4" input jack for tuning both
acoustic instruments and instruments with elec-
tronics. Plugging a cable into the input jack disables
the microphone to prevent extraneous signal input
from interfering with tuning.
Play a note on the instrument to be tuned. The
tuner will display the recognized pitch and the LCD
meter will indicate whether the note is sharp or flat
(needle indication to the left of the center mark
means the note is flat. Needle indication to the right
of the center mark means the note is sharp). Tune
the instrument so that the needle moves toward the
center mark of the display. When the LCD needle is
at the center mark and the single green LED is lit,
the note is in tune.
Tuner calibration
Pressing the EDIT key enters you into frequency
calibration mode. While the frequency indicator is
flashing on screen, use the arrow keys to adjust
the calibration between A400 and A499. After a few
seconds of inactivity the frequency indicator stops
flashing and unit returns to tuning mode at the
specified frequency.
Metronome mode
Pressing the POWER button twice from the off
position enters you into Metronome Mode. The
metronome has both audible and visual references.
The 1st beat of each measure is accented with a
higher pitched tone and the GREEN LED will flash.
With each subsequent beat the RED LED will flash.
