turning off blue light on MCK

[sshep]

Sometimes after automatic tuning I push down on the knob the blue light still stays on and sometimes it goes off. Without a manual it is frustrating to really know what I'm doing. The blue light I'm talking about is on the top of the knob a small rectangle and teardrop. Does that mean something is active while I'm storing my guitar? Thanks.

Pull Up MCK

 

Turn it full clockwise to "Peg" ("Balloon Help "looking icon) -

 

tap it

 

then push all the way down

 

the Blue Light stays "On" -

 

and will drain your battery.

Switch on/off Powertune

 

When you pull the MCK Powertune starts up and depending on your setup the Tuning Mode, Chameleon Mode or Main Menu is activated.

 

Additional the tone capacitor is deactivated, which means that you can rotate the MCK without changing the tone. This feature is necessary to be able to step through the different coil settings in Chameleon Mode without changing the tone.

 

When you push down the MCK the tone capacitor is activated again and Powertune shuts down. But there is one exception! Powertune remains active when the PEQ or the Piezo signal is present AND you rotate the MCK to LED-Peg. When you push down the MCK at this position the PEQ and Piezo signal remain active. The tone knob feels like a regular knob (without clicks) and the tone capacitor is activated again.

 

 

Roundup

If you want to shut down Powertune, turn MCK to any other position than LED-Peg and push MCK.

 

If you want to play with active electronics (PEQ and/or Piezo) rotate MCK to LED-Peg and push MCK.

You play. We tune.
