The

Basics

To

tune

your

guitar

(1)Select

the

frequency

of

the

standard

pitch

(A4).

Before

actually

tuning

your

guitar

Strings,

you

can

use

microswitches

number

8

and

9

on

the

back

of

the

guitar

to

s¢lect

the

frequency

of

the

standard

pitch

you

will

tune

to.

This

is

simply

a

basis

to

work

from

when

you

tune

your

guitar

—

if

one

note

is

in

tune

you

can

tune

the

others

to

it.

As

with

other

instruments,

the

MIDI

guitar

uses

A4

as

the

|

standard

prtch.

You

can

specify

the

frequency

of

A4

by

ruming

'

the

mocroswitches

ON

or

OFF

according

to

the

chart

shown

on

the

nght.

|

@Tune

each

string

by

using

the

tuning

indicators

|

Notice

that

there

are

two

arrows

which

light

up

when

you

play

an

open

string

on

the

guitar.

These

are

the

tuning

indicators.

One

is

marked

“

#"

=

that

the

played

+

ohn

Fay

marked

“b”

indicating

that

the

open

string

being

played

is

flat.

When

these

indicators

light

simultaneously,

the

string

is

in

tune

(within

+3

cents).
