KITTEN CALIBRATION PROCEDURE
The following test equipment is required in order to perform calibration of the instrument.
1.
A high input impedance digital voltmeter of at least 3½ digit accuracy.
2.
A DC Coupled, triggered oscilloscope.
3.
A digital frequency counter, strobe tuner, or suitable Reference Frequency standard.
4.
An amplifier with speaker or headphones capable of high fidelity.
Before beginning the calibration procedure, the following steps must be taken:
1.
Be sure that the instrument has warmed up for at least ½ hour
2.
Connect the audio output to a monitor amplifier
3.
Center the Octave Shift switch and Pitch Bend controls
4.
Be sure that all modulation controls and glide are fully off
5.
“Fc” control fully up and “Q” control fully down
6.
VCA switch is in the BYPASS position
7.
All pedal inputs disconnected
NOTE:
CALIBRATION MUST BE PERFORMED IN THE SEQUENCE PRESENTED.
FAILURE TO DO SO WILL RESULT IN AN IMPROPERLY TUNED INSTRUMENT.
