Please note that the tuner s reference frequency is remembered even after powering the unit off www americanmusical com LINK tc electronic The optional RC4 footswitch not only allows you to remote access the RH450 s three memory locations MEM 1 2 3 but also to mute the signal for silent tuning and even view the tuner information No power supply is needed for the RC4 as it receives its power from the RH450 amp 1 Memory Switches 1 2 and 3 Press one of the three numbered buttons to recall the settings stored in the associated MEM location A green light ring around the switch indicates that this MEM setting has been recalled activated Note that you can only recall MEM setting if a setting has actually been stored in a memory location Also note that as soon as you change one of the stored settings on the RH450 front panel the green light ring on the footswitch will be unlit This indicates that the positions of the front panel knobs no longer correspond with the stored settings 2 MUTE button Press the M ute button to mute the RH450 s outputs This is useful for tuning or e g unplugging changing your bass RC4 a MUTE button also mutes the RH450 s balanced output allowing you to tune silently even when connected to the PA system 3 DISPLAY The display always indicates tuner information in a couple of different ways The detected note is shown on th
