Using the Tuner Function
CUBE-40XL and CUBE-80XL are equipped with a tuner function. In
addition to manual tuning, you can also use it as a chromatic tuner.
* Use manual tuning when the strings are substantially out of tune
(such as after changing strings).

Chromatic Tuning
If you hold down the [TUNER] switch for one second or longer, the
[TUNER] switch blinks and the unit becomes usable as a “chromatic
tuner,” which automatically determines the name of the note closest to
the one played.
As with manual tuning, chromatic tuning allows you to play a single
note on the string that you want to tune. Tune the string until the
green indicator lights.
