Using the tuner function
The MRS-8 incorporates a versatile tuner that can also
accommodate 7-string guitar, 5-string bass and other
unconventional tunings. This section explains how to use
the tuner function.
The chromatic tuner which can automatically detect pitch
in semitone steps operates as follows.
1.
Connect the instrument that you want to
tune to one of the INPUT 1/2 connectors
and set the respective INPUT [ON/OFF] key
to ON.
When using INPUT 1, the [INPUT 1 SELECT] switch on
the rear panel must be set to the correct position.
HINT
If you press the [MIC] key so that it is lit, the internal
microphone will be active and can be used for tuning.
If both inputs are activated, the input signals will be mixed and
sent to the tuner. Set the INPUT [ON/OFF] key of the input not
required for tuning to OFF.
2.
Press the [INSERT EFFECT] key in the
effect section repeatedly, until the key is
out.
The insert effect is bypassed and the display alternately
shows “INSERT BYPASS” and “TUNER
ENTER.
3.
Press the [ENTER] key.
The tuner function is turned on. In the default condition
of a project, the chromatic tuner will be selected.
HINT
•You can switch the tuning type by pressing the left and right
cursor keys. For details, see the next section.
While the tuner is operating, all effects are disabled.
4.
Play the note that you want to tune.
The pitch is automatically detected, and the display
shows the nearest note name (C, C#, D, D#, E...). The
display also indicates by how much the current pitch is
different from the correct pitch.
5.
Adjust the pitch until the “<>” indication
encloses the desired note.
6.
To change the reference pitch of the tuner,
turn the dial during tuner operation.
The reference pitch of the tuner is set to center A = 440
Hz by default. The reference pitch can be adjusted over
the range of 435 – 445 Hz, in 1-Hz steps.
When the value was changed, the original display will
return after a while. You can also press the [EXIT] key or
one of the cursor keys to return.
HINT
The reference pitch setting is saved individually for each
project.
When you change the reference pitch of the tuner, the pitch of
the rhythm section bass program will also change
accordingly.
