Упутство за употребу
Укључивање/искључивање
The HT-6 is a true bypass pedal. When the pedal is off (bypassed), your instrument's signal passes directly through without any processing. To engage the tuner, press the footswitch. The LED display will illuminate, and your signal will be muted, allowing for silent tuning.
Режими подешавања
The HT-6 offers several tuning modes, indicated by LEDs on the pedal:
- Polyphonic Mode: Strum all six strings simultaneously. The pedal will display the tuning status for each string using 15 bright LEDs per string. Green LEDs indicate in-tune, while red/orange LEDs indicate sharp or flat. This mode allows for quick identification of out-of-tune strings.
- Chromatic (Single String) Mode: Play a single string. The display will switch to a precise chromatic tuner for that string, showing whether it is sharp, flat, or in tune. This mode is ideal for fine-tuning individual strings.
- Drop D Tuning: The pedal supports Drop D tuning for guitars. Refer to the pedal's specific controls (if any, usually a button or switch) to select this mode.
- Bass Tuning: The HT-6 is compatible with 4, 5, and 6-string basses. Select the appropriate bass tuning mode for accurate bass guitar tuning.
Процес подешавања
- Engage the tuner by pressing the footswitch. Your signal will be muted.
- For a quick check, strum all strings. Observe the LED display to see which strings are out of tune.
- Adjust each out-of-tune string individually. Play the string, and the display will guide you to the correct pitch. Aim for the central green LED.
- Once all strings are in tune, press the footswitch again to bypass the tuner and unmute your signal.

| Педала се не укључује. | Dead battery or power adapter issue. | Replace 9V battery or check power adapter connection and functionality. Ensure correct polarity if using a non-DigiTech adapter. |
| No signal output when pedal is engaged. | This is normal behavior for tuning mode (signal is muted). Incorrect cable connection. | Ensure the pedal is in bypass mode for signal pass-through. Check all instrument cable connections. |
| Inaccurate tuning readings. | Poor instrument intonation, noisy signal, or incorrect tuning mode selected. | Ensure your instrument's intonation is set correctly. Use high-quality cables. Select the appropriate tuning mode (e.g., single string for precise adjustments). Avoid playing other notes or strings while tuning. |
