Note: The “down” tog-pot switch position means pointing at the floor, referenced to
holding the guitar in a normal playing position
.
1.
With the Gear Shift knob pulled up and the guitar on, push the silver tog-pot switch to
the down (Tuning) position.
Note: This mutes the audio.
2.
Rotate the Gear Shift knob fully counter-clockwise to select standard tuning. The knob’s
display shows “1.”
3.
Strum each string distinctly, as when playing single notes—
not
rapidly, like strumming a
chord. The Robo-Tuners will turn as needed, and the string LEDs around the Gear Shift’s
edge will turn different colors to indicate tuning status. Several strums may be necessary;
the more you use the tuning function, the faster it tunes. Here’s what the colors indicate.
Red
:
String not in tune, or not yet tuned
Yellow:
Robo-Tuners are turning to tune the string. If the corresponding Robo-Tuner
doesn’t turn when its LED flashes yellow, there is a physical or electrical problem.
Green
:
Individual string in tune
All string LEDs
green
:
Tuning is complete
White:
Short circuit detected. If any part of a string touches something metallic
that's not in the normal string path, that string will not tune. Check if a string
touches the tail piece, the bridge, a fret, or another string; make sure that strings
are cut close to the posts, and that all strings are in the bridge saddle's center.
4.
When tuning is finished, LPX automatically exits tuning mode, unmutes the audio, and
returns to whatever patch was selected when you started tuning. A Gear Shift light flashes
green
to confirm the guitar is tuned.
5.
Return the silver tog-pot to mid-position.
To experiment with other tunings:
1.
Push the silver tog-pot down to Tuning position.
2.
Rotate the Gear Shift to the desired tuning. See the following Tuning chart for a listing
(
Gear Shift Center
is the character that appears in the center; the
Gear Shift Symbol
flashes in
blue
briefly upon selecting a patch.)
3.
Strum as described above.
4.
Return the silver tog-pot to the middle position when tuning is done.
