Getting Started
Volume Antenna and adjust your sound system
so that this note is playing at the loudest level
you want to reach.
Tuning the Pitch Antenna
Refer to Figure 6
As with the Volume Antenna, begin with the
PITCH ANTENNA
knob in the midpoint (12
o'clock) position. Without touching the Pitch
Antenna, rotate the
PITCH ANTENNA
knob
fully counterclockwise. A high-pitched note will
begin to emerge. Rotate the
PITCH ANTEN-
NA
knob very slowly in the clockwise direction.
As you do, you will hear the note drop in pitch.
When the pitch reaches about an octave below
Middle C, step back from your Claravox Cen-
tennial. The pitch will continue to decrease un-
til the tone stops completely (null point). This
null point indicates where you – the performer
– are no longer affecting the pitch. With your
right shoulder about 24” (61cm) from the Pitch
Antenna and your arm and hand flat at your
side, carefully adjust the
PITCH ANTENNA
knob so that the pitch of the note is more than
two octaves below Middle C. Now your anten-
na settings are optimized for performance.
TIP:
An electronic tuner connected to the
TUN-
ER OUT
jack can be useful for this operation.
Two octaves below Middle C is the lowest note
on a cello, and about a Major Third below the
lowest note on a six-string guitar.
