Instant Tuner Access

To instantly access the Tuner mode of the Millennium, press and hold the <Utility> button. This will take you directly to the tuner function.

3.As you play a note on the guitar, the large number display will tell you which note you are playing, while the meter will show you if the note is flat or sharp. If the meter is moving to the right, the note you are playing is sharp. If the meter moves left, the note is flat. The goal is to tune your guitar so that the meter stops moving, and the display will lock-in, indicating that you are in tune. Once you start playing the selected note, the display will read as follows:

The Millennium gives you the option of changing the Tuning reference from as low as F# or A=427 to A=453, by simply turning the <3> knob while the Millennium is in Tuner mode. Another feature available in the Millennium Tuner mode, is the ability to set the amount of signal that is passed to the output while tuning. This has a range from 0 (mute) to 100%. The output can be changed by turning the <4> knob to the desired level while the Millennium is in Tuner mode.

Johnson Amplification J-12 Tuner Mode

To access the Tuner mode using the optional J-12 foot controller, press and hold the <Bank Up/Tuner> footswitch to engage tuner mode.

1.As you play a note on the guitar, the indicator in the display of the J-12 will move either to the right, or the left. If the indicator is moving right, the note you are playing is sharp. If the indicator moves left, you are flat. The goal is to tune your guitar so that the indicator stops in the middle and the display locks-in, indicating you are in tune.

2.In both methods of tuning, the tuner is referenced to A=440Hz. If you prefer tuning sharp or flat according to the A reference, use the <3> knob to select a new reference. This can be set as high as A=453Hz or as low as A=427Hz. The tuner can also be used for alternate tuning references where A=Ab (meaning you play an A note, but you hear an Ab note). It is possible to tune as low as A=Gb.

3.At this point, press any footswitch on the J-12 to exit the Tuner mode.
