FOIRE AUX QUESTIONS - TU3S BOSS

Quels sont les modes d'accord disponibles sur le Boss TU3S ?

Le TU3S propose six modes : Chromatique, Chromatique bémol, Guitare, Guitare bémol, Basse et Basse bémol. Le mode Guitare permet d'accorder par numéro de corde (jusqu'à 7 cordes) et le mode Basse supporte les basses 6 cordes.

Comment régler la hauteur de référence (La4) ?

Appuyez simultanément sur les boutons MODE et STREAM/CENT. Le chiffre des unités de la fréquence clignote. Utilisez MODE pour augmenter de 1 Hz et STREAM/CENT pour diminuer de 1 Hz. La plage va de 436 à 445 Hz. Le réglage est conservé après extinction.

Qu'est-ce que la fonction Accu-Pitch Sign ?

La fonction Accu-Pitch Sign indique visuellement la fin de l'accordage : les lumières du mètre convergent vers le centre lorsque la note est accordée avec stabilité. Pour l'activer, maintenez le bouton STREAM/CENT enfoncé tout en mettant sous tension.

Comment activer le mode Haute luminosité ?

Maintenez le bouton STREAM/CENT enfoncé pendant au moins 2 secondes pour basculer entre le mode normal et le mode Haute luminosité. Ce mode augmente la visibilité en extérieur mais consomme plus (95 mA contre 35 mA).

Quelle est la différence entre l'affichage CENT et STREAM ?

En mode CENT, le mètre s'allume à gauche si la note est trop basse, à droite si trop haute, et vert au centre si juste. En mode STREAM, les lumières défilent vers la gauche (trop bas) ou la droite (trop haut) ; le défilement ralentit à mesure que l'accord s'affine et s'arrête lorsqu'il est exact.

Puis-je accorder une guitare 7 cordes ou une basse 6 cordes ?

Oui, le mode Guitare supporte les guitares 7 cordes (la 7e corde est affichée '7') et le mode Basse supporte les basses 6 cordes (Do aigu affiché 'C', Si grave affiché 'b').

Comment brancher le TU3S dans ma chaîne d'effets ?

Branchez votre instrument sur la prise INPUT, puis reliez la prise OUTPUT à vos autres pédales d'effets ou à l'amplificateur. Pour un accordage correct, le TU3S doit être placé en premier dans la chaîne, avant les autres effets.

Puis-je alimenter d'autres pédales avec le TU3S ?

Oui, via la prise DC OUT, vous pouvez alimenter d'autres pédales compatibles avec l'adaptateur PSA en utilisant un cordon parallèle PCS-20A (optionnel). L'adaptateur secteur PSA est nécessaire.

Que faire si l'accordeur ne s'allume pas ?

Vérifiez que l'adaptateur secteur (PSA série) est correctement branché et que la prise secteur est sous tension. L'accordeur s'allume automatiquement dès que l'adaptateur est connecté. Si le problème persiste, consultez la feuille 'IMPORTANT NOTES'.

Le TU3S est-il compatible avec les accordages alternatifs (Drop D, etc.) ?

Oui, le mode Guitare bémol permet des accordages 'descendus' jusqu'à six demi-tons en dessous du réglage standard. Par exemple, pour un Drop D, accordez la corde de Mi grave un ton plus bas (mode b).

MODE D'EMPLOI TU3S BOSS

Before using this unit, carefully read the sections entitled: "USING THE UNIT SAFELY" and "IMPORTANT NOTES" (supplied on a separate sheet). These sections provide important information concerning the proper operation of the unit.

Additionally, in order to feel assured that you have gained a good grasp of every feature provided by your new unit, this manual should be read in its entirety. The manual should be saved and kept on hand as a convenient reference.

Main Features

• High Brightness mode enhances meter visibility outdoors.
• Accu-Pitch Sign function uses the motion of the meter's lights to show when tuning is completed.
• Guitar/Bass mode lets you tune by string number, with support for 7-string guitars and 6-string basses.
• Flat tuning is supported with Guitar Flat mode, which allows for "down" tunings up to six semitones below standard pitch.

How to Use the Tuner

1. Connect the AC adaptor (sold separately). This switch on the sensor of the FUSEC indicators
2. Connect the guitar or bass you want to tune to the INPUT jack.
3. Play a single note on your guitar or bass, and tune it.

The note name or string number closest to the tone being played appears in the display. Tune the instrument so that both Tuning Guide indicators are lit and the center of the meter is lit green. (Cent display)

The meter will light farther toward the left as the pitch gets flatter, or farther toward the right as the pitch gets sharper.

• When the Accu-Pitch Sign function is on, the meter lights stream toward the center of the display when stable tuning at the correct pitch is reached.
• The meter behavior described here is when the CENT display is selected (the factory setting). The behavior is different when you've selected the STREAM display.

Convenient Functions

Having the Meter Indicate Completion of Tuning (Accu-Pitch Sign function)

When the Accu-Pitch Sign function is on, the meter lights stream toward the center of the display when stable tuning at the correct pitch is reached.

1. While holding down the STREAM/CENT button, turn on the power (connect the AC adaptor).
2. Press the STREAM/CENT button again to toggle the Accu-Pitch Sign function on/off.

On: The meter lights stream to the center from the left and right. Off: The meter lights up at the left and right.

*After making the setting, you will need to turn on the power again. * This setting remains stored even after the power is turned off.

Changing the Reference Pitch

You can adjust the reference pitch over a range of 436-445 Hz. (440 Hz is the factory default.)
1. Press the MODE button and STREAM/CENT button simultaneously.

The lowest digit of the current reference pitch (e.g., "0" when set to 440Hz ) blinks in the Note Name/Strinig indicator,

1. Press the MODE button or STREAM/CENT button to change the reference pitch.
   MODE button: Raises the reference pitch by 1 Hz.

STREAM/CENT button: Lowers the reference pitch by 1 Hz.

If you allow several seconds to elapse without pressing the MODE
button or STREAM/CENT button, the TU-3S will return to normal operation.

• When you turn on the power, the current reference pitch will be displayed for several seconds.
• This setting remains stored even after the power is turned off.

Changing the Meter's Brightness (High Brightness mode)

By switching the meter to High Brightness mode, you can increase its visibility when performing outdoors.
To switch to High Brightness mode, hold down the STREAM/CENT button for two seconds or longer. To return to normal brightness, hold down the STREAM/CENT for two seconds or longer once again.
* Normal brightness is automatically selected when you turn on the power.

Precautions When Connecting

• To prevent malfunction and/or damage to speakers or other devices, always turn down the volume, and turn off the power on all devices before making any connections.

• Some connection cables contain resistors. When connection cables with resistors are used, the sound level may be extremely low, or impossible to hear. For information on cable specifications, contact the manufacturer of the cable.

• Once the connections have been completed, turn on power to your devices in the order specified. By turning on devices in the wrong order, you risk causing malfunction and/or damage to speakers and other devices.

When powering up: Turn on the power to your guitar amp last.
When powering down: Turn off the power to your guitar amp first

• This unit is equipped with a protection circuit. A brief interval (a few seconds) after power up is required before the unit will operate normally.

Attaching the Rubber Foot

You can attach the rubber foot (included) if necessary.

• When turning the unit over, be careful so as to protect the buttons and switches from damage.
