Using The Tuner
The built-in tuner allows you to effortlessly
tune your guitar and offers 4 different tuning
references as shown in the table to the
right. In most cases you will use the standard
tuning reference, which is A440 (A=440Hz).
This is the default tuning reference setting in
the Element/Element XP.

The tuner can be accessed from either Play
Mode or Edit Mode. As a note is played, the
LED display will show the note. The most
center effect LED (green) will light when
the note is in tune. If an effect LED to the
left of the green LED is lit, the note is flat,
so you must tune the string up. If an LED to
the right of the green LED is lit, the note is
sharp, so you must tune the string down.
