Creating TL InTune Tuning
Presets
TL InTune lets you create customized tuning
presets that display note selections for specific
instruments and tunings. Once created, these
tuning presets can be saved as part of a standard
Pro Tools plug-in preset.
From the main TL InTune screen, click the
Edit
button to display the Tuner Programming
screen.
Chromatic Mode
When selected, Chromatic Mode overrides any
custom note selections and displays a 12-note
chromatic scale. The note entry fields are dis-
abled when
Chromatic Mode is selected.
Single Octave Mode
When selected, Single Octave Mode disables the
display of octave information with each note on
the main TL InTune screen. When tuning in this
mode, TL InTune ignores the octave of the note
being tuned. The octave information entered in
the Edit screen is used only for generating test
tones.
Single Octave Mode is typically used for instru-
ments which generate harmonics in multiple oc-
taves, such as bass guitars. Because of the low
frequency waveform generated by a bass guitar,
it is easier for TL InTune to tune to a higher har-
monic of the note instead.
Display Flat Semitones
TL InTune will display all semitones entered
into note fields as sharp by default. For example,
a guitar tuned to E-flat is usually represented by
the following.
Eb2, Ab2, Db3, Gb3, Bb3, Eb4
By default, if these notes are entered in the Edit
screen, TL InTune will display these same notes
in the following way.
D#2, G#2, C#3, F#3, A#3, D#4
The
Display Flat Semitones option overrides the
default behavior and displays semitones as flats,
not sharps. It is not possible to display both
sharp and flat semitones in the same tuning pre-
set.
Note Entry Fields
The twelve note entry fields allow entry of indi-
vidual notes from A0 to G7. Flat semitones are
entered with a “b” (for example, Ab2), and sharp
semitones are entered with a hash or pound
character (for example, A#2). To clear an entry,
enter “– –.”
Note fields are committed by pressing Return
(Macintosh) or Enter (Windows). If you do not
press Return or Enter, the note field will return
to the previous value entered. TL InTune will
automatically justify the note buttons as needed
so they fit in the correct area on the main screen.
The Note Entry fields are not available in Chro-
matic mode.
