bass tuner. The tuner is always active, whether BLACKSMITH is

in Mute mode or not. Here is how you read the display:

The played note is shown on the left side of the display.

On the right side of the display,

– a circle indicates that the note is in tune.

– an arrow pointing right indicates that the note is too low and

should be tuned up.

– an arrow pointing left indicates that the note is too high and

should be tuned down.

Too low – tune up Too high – tune down

In tune

Sharp notes: C#, D#, F#, G# and A# are indicated as follows:

Example – A#

The tuner also offers a Mute mode with additional tuner

information. To activate Mute mode, simply press the MUTE

button. Now the BASS tone control turns into a high resolution

pitch indicator supporting the Note and Arrow field of the tuner.

Too low – tune up Too high – tune down

Tuner information is also displayed in the optional RC-4

footswitch. Yes, this is correct: If you have a RC-4 footswitch,

you do no longer need a separate tuner. Please refer to the

manual section “RC-4” to learn more about this footswitch.
