Guitar Sensitivity
While playing the guitar, the Guitar Signal Strength indicator should be green
or amber. If the Guitar Signal Strength indicator does not light when you play,
the guitar signal level may be too low and the Guitar Sensitivity should be
changed to
Hi
. If the Guitar Signal Strength indicator lights red, then the Guitar
Sensitivity should be changed to
Lo
.
To set the Guitar Sensitivity hold the Tuner button
until the new Guitar Sensitivity setting of
Hi
or
Lo
is displayed. The most common setting is Lo Guitar
Sensitivity.
Tuner
It is important for your guitar to be properly tuned in order for the musIQ
®
technology to generate the best sounding harmonies. Alternate tunings (for ex-
ample, DADGAD or tuning down) are fine, as long as the built-in tuner shows
each string as in tune. If you are using an external tuner, make sure that the
reference is set to 440 Hz.
To use the built-in tuner, press the Tuner button to
start the Guitar Tuner. The Tuner button will flash
while the Tuner mode is active. Note that for the
Tuner to work properly it needs to receive adequate
guitar signal strength, which is indicated by the Guitar
Signal Strength indicator.
As each string is individually played, the closest note to that played will appear
on the Display and the Tuner Bars will show the deviation in pitch from the
target note. If the string is in tune with the target note, the green center Tuner
Bar will be lit. Bars to the left will light if the string is flat and bars to the right
if the string is sharp.
When all strings are in tune, press the Tuner button to exit the Guitar Tuner.
