RACKTUNER BTR2000 User Manual
1.  Introduction
Thank you for the confidence you have placed in us with your 
purchase of the BTR2000. You have acquired an extraordinary 
combination of a tuner and a metronome with integrated rack 
lighting that also makes it perfect for on-stage use.
This advanced equipment sets new standards with its extensive list of 
features. It is an auto-chromatic tuner, which means it can automatically 
recognize any pitch when tuning your instrument. It also offers 
3 individually configurable functions in tuner mode:
With 11 different modes, the tuner lets you respond fully to the 
specific needs of your instrument. For example, in guitar mode 
the BTR2000 recognizes the pitches of the open guitar strings, 
while in chromatic mode it recognizes all 12 half-tones.
The standard “A” pitch can be calibrated individually. This makes 
the tuning of your instrument even more flexible.
To achieve a particular sound or to allow you to play better 
with other instruments (such as brass), the RACKTUNER lets 
you transpose your instrument by half steps, tuning it higher 
or lower. This way you can be fully responsive to the unique 
features of both the music and your instrument.
In addition to its function as a tuner, the BTR2000 can also be used 
as a metronome. You can set the BPM rate manually or use the 
TAP function.
With its well-engineered circuitry, the RACKTUNER can be used with 
one or two amplifiers, so that you can adapt the BTR2000 for use 
in many different settings, where it will provide optimal support in 
any situation.

2.  Control Elements and Connections
This chapter describes the different control ele ments of your BTR2000. 
All of the buttons and connectors are explained in detail with useful 
information on how to make the most of them.
Most of the buttons on the RACKTUNER have a dual function. 
The different functions on each button are distinguished by how long 
the button is held down when pressed. 
The RACKTUNER’s operating mode—tuner or metronome mode—also 
determines button function.
There are one or two LEDs above each button. They correspond to the 
functions of the buttons. For example, either the “1” or “2/MIC” light is 
always on above the INPUT SELECT  
(9)
  button. The “MUTE” LED on 
the other hand only lights up when the MUTE button  
(8)
  is pressed to 
turn off the sound of the unit.
◊ 
When you switch to metronome mode, the LEDs for the 
tuner mode are turned off.
