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.
