Installing the battery

Slide off the back cover of the TD-19 to open the battery compart-
ment. Making sure to observe the correct polarity, insert the batter-
ies, and then slide the back cover to close the battery compartment.
If the unit malfunctions and you are unable to correct the

the batteries and then reinstall them.
When the batteries run low, the display will blink slowly. Replace
the batteries as soon as possible.
Tuning procedure
■
Meter mode
In this mode the VU style meter shown in the display is used to
tune your instrument.
1. If an instrument equipped with a pickup or the optional TM-
20 Microphone (for exclusive use of YAMAHA tuners) is used,
connect the instrument or mic cord (plug) to the INPUT jack of
the TD-19.
If you wish to tune your instrument using the built-in mic, do
not connect a plug to the INPUT jack. In steps 4 and 5, place
your instrument as close as possible to the built-in mic.
If a plug is connected to the INPUT jack, the built-in mic
cannot be used. The INPUT jack is for mono use only. Stereo
plugs cannot be used.
2. Press the power button to turn on the TD-19.
When the TD-19 is turned on, the previously specified reference
pitch is indicated.
When the power is on for 20 minutes without use, the tuner will
automatically turn off to conserve battery life.
3. If you wish to change the reference pitch (calibration), press the
CALIB or button. This can be adjusted in 1 Hz steps over
a range of 410 Hz-480 Hz.(*)
4. Play a single note on your instrument, and the name of the
nearest note will appear in the display. Tune your instrument
so that the correct note name is shown in the display.

5. Tune your instrument so that the VU style meter moves to the
position (center) and the center pitch guide LED is lit.
The left indicator of the tuning guide will light if your instrument
is flat, and the right indicator will light if your instrument is sharp.
If you want to tune a pure major third above or a pure minor third
above a certain note, make the meter indicate " " (-13.7 cents) or "
" (+15.6 cents).
For example if you want to tune a major third above the A (0 cents)
note, set the note name display to C#, and make the meter indicate
" ".
Or if you want to tune a minor third above A (0cent), set the note
name display to C, and make the meter indicate " ".
While tuning with the built-in mic a quiet environment is recom-
mended for precise tuning.
Even if the pitch is within the range of detection, it may not be
possible to detect the pitch of an instrumental sound that contains
large numbers of overtones or a sound that has a rapid decay.
