Tuning procedure

1. Press the TUNER ON/OFF switch to activate the tuner.

The TUNER ON/OFF LED will light. Because STV-1JB has a Muting circuit, 

you can only tune silently, meaning you will not hear your audio signal 

through an amp etc.

2. If desired, adjust the calibration and/or select the display mode. 

STV-1JB comes from the factory with the calibration set to A=440 and 

the tuning mode set to Meter (see “Adjusting the calibration” & 

“Choosing a display mode”).
3. Play a single note on your instrument and tune it so that the desired 

note appears in the note name display.

The note name closest to the entered note appears in the note name 

display.

4. Tune your instrument using the tuning LED meter.

The method for indicating whether your instrument is in tune, sharp or flat 

depends on which display mode you choose. (see “Choosing a display 

mode”)

5. After you finish tuning your instrument, press the TUNER ON/OFF 

switch to turn the tuner off.

The TUNER ON/OFF LED turns off. Now your signal will be heard through 

your amp.

Adjusting the calibration

STV-1JB comes from the factory with the calibration set to A=440 Hz. If an 
adjustment is necessary, you can do so within a range of 436–445 Hz.

1. Press the CALIB button.

The current calibration setting will blink for several seconds in the note 

name display (Light 

 Blink).

2. While the current calibration setting is shown in the note name 

display, press the CALIB button again to adjust the setting.

Each time you press the CALIB button you will cycle through the following 

settings.

0: 440Hz, 1: 441Hz, 2: 442Hz, 3: 443Hz, 4: 444Hz, 5: 445Hz, 6: 436Hz,

7: 437Hz, 8: 43 Hz, 9: 439Hz

3. After you have selected your desired calibration setting, wait 

approximately two seconds without pressing any buttons.

The new setting will blink in the note name display indicating the calibration 

has been set. STV-1JB will automatically return to tuner mode.
