I want to program Lozach offsets into my Strobo-Flip user settings. (They work extremely well for my guitar) I understand the process, but I am confused about the difference between T-1 and S-1. The manual contains an explanation, but it does not make sense to me.
Can someone please explain very basically which I should use and why? I am confused. Crying or Very sad




Thanks,
Tim

i could be wrong Tim, but from what i read & understand, T1, T2, T3, T4 are used to program the values of each note you want
whereas S1, S2, S3, etc are used to drop to a fixed root or key ?
using capos or drop tunings
i'd use the Ts for psg without a doubt

I use the "T" programs on my tuner. I know exactly what frequencies I want for each string. The "S" (sweetened) is a slightly compensated and thus is not exactly what you program.

Thanks very much - I have entered my settings into the T locations and it works great.

Tim, how did you program the two different F# settings?

Roger,
I programmed all of the open strings and all pulls except the F# in the T-1. Then I programmed everything again in the T-2 using the offset for the F# pull instead of the open F# (stored in T-1). I rarely need to adjust the pulls unless I change strings, so I will use the T-1 for opens and T-2 for pulls. This is redundant, but if I accidentally forget to change programs, I will only have one string to fix.

Tim

Yep Randy, I'm thinking whoops too. I've had mine in S1 and S2 for the 2 necks.
