    CNC machines ? Chromatic mode should definitely be useful. The visual feedback requires an accurate reference frequency. You may play with A4 value or ratios to get desired non mus…

    Post your detailed feedback when you have time or e-mail us. Will be checking the thread. If there is even a slight variation of pitch w.r.t reference note the visual feedback will…

    Interesting. It took time for us to get the waveform stability working. We also have a smoothed wave overlay on top of raw signal. This is more a filtered version of input signal. …

    No. When sharp even by 0.5Hz the waveform rotates right and left when flat.

    > me immediate feedback on my pitch accuracy while I play The visual feedback needs manual reference note settings. That is the only limitation.

    There is a short video here https://www.youtube.com/shorts/gZbP7svgBUM (not comprehensive. uses simulated sine wave and app generated tones). There is no web or iOS version.

    The visual feedback uses time period (of ref note) and number of cycles to set the scale of waveform display. It doesn't depend on detected pitch. I think strobe tuner's used neat …

    Thanks for your valuable feedback. Instrument list and temperament profiles would be expanded before adding other new features. The project started as a tuner app for South Indian …

    Wow, impressive stability. In case of violin (bowed instrument), the waveform stability is visualised very well. Closer to sine wave. I tend to see less harmonics than plucked lute…

    An iOS version is definitely in our plans. We intend to launch it once this app has gained sufficient traction.

    Yes. The pitch displayed and needle interface is based on measured frequency. It also shows the nearest note name based on this measured value. The visual waveform interface's stab…

    We will be introducing an ad-free premium version once we finalize the implementation details. We also wish to clarify that English is not our native language.

    Pitch detection is computed and can sometimes be influenced by external noise or sampling limitations.It can jump. However, the visual display is based on the period of the referen…

    This visual feedback is very similar. It also shows octave changes i.e if the pitch detected is 0.5x, 1x or 2x the reference freq / note set.

    Pitch is an estimate based on sampled audio. Sometimes, it is not always accurately detected. Here, we have an additional visual cue that produces a stable/stationary waveform when…
