Tuner Reference
BLACKSMITH’s default tuner reference is 440 Hz – just like any
other tuner. However, you can select any reference frequency
between 438 and 445 Hz.
This is how you select the tuner reference frequency:
– If BLACKSMITH is switched on, switch it off.
– Press and hold the MUTE button during power up.
– BLACKSMITH now powers up in Tuner reference mode,
which is illustrated by an “R” in the Display (see illustration
below).
Tune Reference mode
– Dial the BASS tone control to alter the tuner reference. The
center position equals 440 Hz, and each LED represents
one Hertz. So to set the tuner reference frequency e.g. to
438 Hz, turn the BASS knob counter-clockwise until the
second LED on the left lights up.
– Press the MUTE button to exit Tuner Reference mode.
Please note that the tuner’s reference frequency is
remembered even after powering the unit off.
