Betjeningsvejledning
Basic Tuning (Polyphonic Mode)
- Ensure the tuner is powered on.
- Strum all open strings of your guitar or bass simultaneously. The display will show the tuning status for each string (1-6).
- Adjust each string individually until its corresponding indicator on the display turns green, indicating it is in tune. Red indicates flat, and yellow indicates sharp.
Kromatisk Tuning Mode
- To switch to chromatic mode, pluck a single string. The tuner will automatically detect the note and display it on the main screen, along with the BØDE tuning meter.
- Adjust the string until the note name is correct and the BØDE tuning meter indicates the pitch is centered.
Calibration (A4 Pitch Adjustment)
- Tryk på CALIB knappen for at gå ind i kalibreringstilstand.
- Brug FLAT/CAPO og VISE buttons to adjust the A4 reference pitch in 1 Hz increments (typically from 436 Hz to 445 Hz).
- Trykke CALIB again to exit calibration mode.
Flat/Capo Settings
