Locking the Active Edit Menu
To prevent the time-out and automatic closing of the Edit Menu, first activate the Edit Menu. Then, press and hold
the select knob for two seconds. The screen will return to normal, however, the selected parameter will continue to
blink and the select knob can be used to edit that parameter indefinitely for on-the-fly adjustments. The automatic
menu time-out will be disabled. To exit the locked Edit Menu, press the select knob and the screen will return to
normal.
Locking a parameter in the Edit Menu can be handy when you desire to edit that parameter over a period of time.
For example, if you want to measure the cents offset of an input signal, locking the cents parameter in the Edit
Menu will allow for continued adjustments without the Edit Menu timing out.
Selectable Parameters
Transpose/Drop/Capo - choice of 12 (factory default is 0 or C). This control is used to help players of non-C
instruments such as saxophone (Eb), French horn (F) and trumpet (Bb) to transpose notes when reading from C
notation. It is also used for stringed instruments to allow simple drop tuning or capo tuning without having to
transpose the notes in your head.
Concert A Reference Pitch- Range: 390Hz to 490Hz, adjustable in 0.1Hz increments.
Cents – Range of +/- 50 cents in 0.1 cent increments. This control adjusts the target that the tuner tunes to by very
fine increments of 1/10 of one cent. This is valuable if you want to determine how far out of tune a particular
instrument is or if you want to chart the tuning of a particular instrument. To determine the exact pitch, play a
note, then rotate the select knob while the cents value is flashing until the strobe image appears to be immobile.
The cents value on the display will show the offset of the note played.
Manual Note Select – Default settings are auto note select in strobe tune mode and manual note select in audio
tune mode. Press the man/auto button to change this setting.
