5.Press
NOTE: When switched on, the machine will automatically set the A4 frequency at 440Hz. If a different pitch is
selected the device will memorize it as long as the batteries are inside.
4. Tuning:
The machine will automatically detect the note generated from the instrument. The display will show both the desired
note and the tone accuracy.
If the note shown by the machine is identical to the tone generated by the instrument, the green LED light will be
activated and the tuning accuracy indicator arrow will point to the center of the accuracy calibration scale.
To tune the instrument: please decrease the frequency of the instrument first before increasing the frequency gradually until the note on the machine display matches the tone from the instrument.
• Acoustic Tuning
After selecting the desired A4 frequency and key, place the machine in a position where it can easily pick up the
sound of the instrument. Direct the device’s built in microphone towards the instrument to ensure a good tuning effect. Use the foldable stand to increase visibility of the LCD, if required. Should the tuning accuracy be compromised
by ambient noises, an external microphone (clip-on, contact pickup microphone or other) may be connected to the
1/4”
input connector to bypass the built in electret microphone. Eventually the machine can be connected
to an amplifier by inserting cable into output jack
to output the generated tone.
• Electric Tuning
Plug the instrument cable into the 1/4”
input connector. Use the foldable stand to increase visibility of the
LCD, if required.
To listen to your instrument while tuning, connect the TUM 50 (RC) to a(n) (pre)amplifier or effect pedal loop by
inserting a second cable into output jack
. When the TUM 50 (RC) is powered off, the sound of the instrument will still be heard, thus the device may be permanently connected to the input amp loop.
