DTR-2000 only: Tuning with a reference tone

1.Make the desired calibration and flat settings, and select the desired tuning mode.

2.Simultaneously press the DISPLAY switch and CHROMATIC switch to enter Sound mode. The Sound indicator will light.

3.A reference tone will sound from the SOUND jack. Use the controls of the connected amp or mixer etc. to adjust the volume.

4.If you want to raise the pitch of the reference tone, press the CHROMATIC switch. If you want to lower the pitch, press the DISPLAY switch. The pitch will rise or fall in steps according to the tuning mode you selected.

When you enter Sound mode, the reference tone will be "A" for Chromatic mode, or the lowest note for the other tuning modes.

If you are producing sound on your instrument at the moment you enter Sound mode, the DTR-2000will output the reference tone that is closest to that note.

5.Tune your instrument to the reference tone.

6.To exit Sound mode, simultaneously press the DISPLAY switch and the CHROMATIC switch. The Sound mode indicator will go dark.

Calibration procedure

Calibration can be performed in one of two ways: you can use Manual calibration to adjust the setting from the front panel of the DTR-2000/1000, or you can use Auto Reference calibration to detect the pitch of the input instrument and use it as the reference pitch.

The calibration setting you make is remembered until you turn off the power switch. When you turn on the power, the calibration will be set to A=440 Hz.

Manual calibration

1.Press the CALIB switch, and the multi-LCD will display the lowest digit of the current calibration value (the range is 438 Hz–445 Hz). If Auto Reference calibration was used to specify a value that is outside this range, the display will indicate "L" (lower) or "H" (higher).

2.Each time you press the CALIB switch, the value will change in steps of 1 Hz.

3.To return to a reference pitch of 440 Hz, press the CALIB switch several times to make the multi-LED read "0."

If you hold down the CALIB switch for one second or longer, Auto Reference calibration will occur.

Auto Reference calibration

1.If you want to use the pitch of an electric guitar or keyboard etc. as the reference pitch, connect it to INPUT 1 (or 2) and play a single note on your instrument.

On the DTR-2000, you can use the internal mic to pick up the sound of an acoustic instrument and use it as the reference pitch. (See left column, "Connections.")

2.When the tuning meter stops moving, press and hold the CALIB switch (approximately one second) until the meter display disappears briefly.

3.The note name will be detected automatically, and the calibration value will be set. The multi-LED will display the lowest digit of the 438 Hz–445 Hz value, or "L" (lower) or "H" (higher).

The note you play on your instrument does not need to be "A."

On the DTR-2000, play a note that the selected tuning mode is able to detect (e.g., if GUITAR mode is selected, play E, A, D, G, or B.)

The DTR-2000/1000can detect a pitch deviation of +/-50 cents, so even if you use a note other than "A" to set the reference pitch, that note name will automatically be detected (within a range of +/-50 cents), and used for Auto Reference calibration.

However in such cases, the multi-LED will display the calibration value as if the input note were converted to A4 (middle "A" on a piano).

Auto Reference calibration will not occur if the input note is unstable or not loud enough for detection.

If you press and immediately release the CALIB switch, Manual calibration will occur.

If you press the CALIB switch before the meter movement stabilizes, the reference pitch will not be detected accurately.

Flat tuning

When you press the FLAT switch, the note name display will indicate a semitone higher than the actual pitch. Each time you press the switch, the setting will be lowered by one flat, allowing you to lower the tuning by a maximum of seven flats.

The number of flats will be displayed in the multi-LED for approximately one second after you press the FLAT switch. Also, the indicator beside the switch will be lit while you are using flat tuning. To exit Flat tuning, press the FLAT switch several times to make the multi-LED show "0." The indicator beside the switch will go dark.

DTR-2000 only: Tuning mode

You can use the CHROMATIC switch and MODE switch to change the tuning mode.

When you turn on the power, Chromatic mode will be selected.
