<!--
The tuner can track instruments connected to channels 1-4. To access the Tuner
mode for a specific instrument, simply press the Channel Edit button of the
corresponding channel on the T1. The display indicates the note being played at
the bottom of the screen. As you tune, a pitch indicator appears on the display,
showing you whether the note is sharp or flat. Adjust the pitch of your instrument
so the cursor aligns itself with the center of the screen.


{{:Firmware Update Warning}}
==== New Features ====
=====Transpose mode =====
The Transpose function allows you to tune your instrument to a pitch that's one
half to one full step higher or lower than the selected note.
Rotate the Transpose encoder control to select from the following tuning modes:
 
bb mode (A=G) ...............Whole step down
 
b mode (A=G#) ...............Half step down
 
Normal mode (A=A)........Default
 
<nowiki>#</nowiki> mode (A=A#) ...............Half step up
 
<nowiki>##</nowiki> mode (A=B) ...............Whole step up
 
Press the Transpose encoder control to select the transpose mode.
 
The default pitch of A will be displayed in the lower left corner of the display along with the new target pitch.
 
* Example 1
Tuning in bb mode is the equivalent of tuning down a guitar by one whole step, changing the pitch of the open low E string
to D.
 
* Example 2
Tuning in # mode would be equal to placing a capo on the 1st fret of a guitar. The display would indicate A=A#.
 
===== Reference pitch =====
 
The Reference pitch function allows you to change the A4 reference pitch within
the range of 430 Hz to 450 Hz. This is especially useful when playing/tuning with
classical musicians.
 
Rotate the Ref. Pitch encoder control to change the A4 reference pitch to the
desired setting. When a reference pitch other than the default pitch of 440 Hz is
selected, it will appear in the lower right corner of the display.

=== Fixes  ===
 
==== Blue Screen Outage  ====
 
We’ve identified and fixed a problem in the Tuner which contributed to the small number of audio drop outs or “Blue Screen Issues” some of you may have experienced. Thank you to everyone that helped us identify this issue, we appreciate your patience and support.
 
==== Firmware update architecture  ====
 
The T1 or model II power stand will now ignore the double update request. Enhancements have also been made to the L1® updater v. 1.1 for PC and L1® updater v. 1.0 for Mac that prevents the user from being prompted to retry the update. A message will now appear asking the customer to power cycle their T1 before attempting the update again.

=== Enhancements  ===
 
==== Windows Vista Compatibility  ====
 
The {{T1}} can now be detected as an audio device when connected via USB to a PC that is using the Windows Vista operating system. This provides users the ability to use the T1® as an input device/soundcard with their favorite audio recording program.
 
==== Para EQ Range  ====
 
The Para EQ range has been increased from 8k to 16k to provide more flexibility for more demanding applications. As an added convenience the name of the musical note associated with the frequency now appears on the display of the {{T1}}.
 
==== USB audio metering and streaming  ====
 
USB audio is now reflected in the channel 4/5 input metering under the Preferences menu only. The Trim LED for channel 4/5 will no longer track USB input levels.
 
==== USB AUX Tap addition  ====
 
USB is now available on channel 4/5 dry AUX tap.
