Precautions

Introduction:

Congratulations on your purchase of the Rocktron Unity Tuner.

The Unity Tuner is a true “on-stage” tuner for any gig. The Unity

Tuner’s large LED NOTE display makes it easy to see what note

you are tuning, even from a distance. Several Red LEDs are also

used to help you easily determine if you are sharp or at and by

how much.

A unique feature to the Unity Tuner are the photocells. These

photocells sense the lighting situation you are playing in and

adjust the brightness of the LED Note Display to accommodate

that lighting. When you are playing outside on a sunlit stage,

the photocells sense that the area is bright and increase the LED

intensity making the LEDs brighter and easier to see. The opposite

effect happens when playing on a dark, low light situation. The

photocells sense that the lighting is low and dim the LED Note

Display making it easier on the eyes.

The Unity Tuner is equipped with a “STROBE” function for those

who require extremely accurate tuning. The STROBE function is a

sensitive tool that really allows you to dial in the exact tuning.

Two outputs are provided as well. The jack marked “OUTPUT”

provides a constant signal path to other effects or amps when you

turn on the tuner. This allows you to hear what you are tuning

through your amp. When the “OUTPUT (MUTE)” is used, the

Unity Tuner cuts the signal to the next effect or amp and allows you

to tune in silence, This is a very useful on-stage tool.

You are now ready to tune in all playing situations!

Descriptions

Descriptions continued.........

DISPLAY Window - This black window houses the LEDs and controls

for the Unity Tuner

NOTE LED BANK - This bank of blue LEDs will display the note being

played or tuned.

IN TUNE Green LED - when the note being played is “in tune” this LED

will light.

9VDC Input - This input jack provides 9VDC power to the pedal from the

Rocktron DC OnTap 9V power supply (sold separately).

SHARP/FLAT LEDS - These Red LEDs show you if your note is Sharp

or Flat. Red LEDs to the right of the green LED are sharp and the string

should be tuned down. The farther right the LED is away from the Green

in Tune LED the more the note is SHARP. Red LEDs to the left of the

green LED are at and the string should be tuned up. The farther left the

LED is away from the Green in tune LED the more the note is at.

SHARP/FLAT Indicator - If the note being played is “sharp” the “sharp”

(#) symbol will “light.”

STROBE Button - To turn ON or OFF “strobe” tuning press this button.

To learn how to use the “strobe” function, see section called “STROBE

TUNING” later in this manual.

INPUT Jack - Using a standard 1/4” guitar cable, plug your guitar into

this jack.

PHOTOCELLS - These two photocells sense the lighting of the venue

you are playing. When playing outside on a bright sunny day, the NOTE

LEDs will increase in intensity slightly to make it eaiser to see. When

playing on a dark stage the NOTE LEDs will decrease in intensity.

FOOTSWITCH - Use this switch to turn the pedal ON or OFF

Descriptions continued.........

CALIBRATE button - this button is used to calibrate the tuner to match

the pitch of any instrument or audio source (like an old piano or tape

player). For details on this function - see section titled “Calibration.”

OUTPUT Jack - This jack provides output to your amp or the next pedal

in the signal chain. Use a 1/4” guitar cable to plug into the next effect or

into a guitar amplier. This jack provides a contant output whether the

tuner is on or off and does not mute the output.

OUTPUT JACK (MUTE)- This jack provides output to your amp or the

next pedal in the signal chain. Use a 1/4” guitar cable to plug into the

next effect or into a guitar amplier. This jack will MUTE the output to

the next pedal or amp when the tuner is turned on. This is ideal for silent

tuning on stage.

MUTED Connection

CONSTANT Connection

Step 1 - plug the guitar/bass into the tuner - see “connections” section.

Step 2 - play a note on your guitar. Pluck your E string, if needed, adjust your

tuning machine on your instrument until the letter “E” appears in the NOTE

Display window.

Step 3 - if your note is at - the “FLAT” LEDs to the left of the IN TUNE green

LEDs will light. The farther away the red LED is from the green IN TUNE LED

the more at the tuning is. If a Flat LED is lit, tune your string up. During this

process the LEDs will begin to light and move closer to the green IN TUNE

LED.

Step 4 - if your note is sharp - the “SHARP” LEDs to the right of the IN TUNE

green LEDs will light. The farther away the red LED is from the green IN

TUNE LED the more sharp the tuning is. If a sharp LED is lit, tune your string

down. During this process the LEDs will begin to light and move closer to the

green IN TUNE LED.

Step 5 - Continue with step 3 or step 4 until the at or sharp LEDs are not lit

and the green “IN TUNE” LED lights. At this point the string is in tune.

Step 6 - Continue steps 2-5 but using your other strings on your guitar or bass.
