Description

A chromatic tuner and pitch pipe used by over a million musicians.

Pitched Tuner and Pitch Pipe has been designed by musicians to help you quickly and easily tune your instrument using the microphone on your device.
It works well for a wide range of instruments: Ukulele, violin, mandolin, flute, guitars, voice, and more. Even very low bass strings can be tuned. Simple controls and clear visuals make it great for beginners. Responsive and precise algorithms provide professional level accuracy for more advanced players.

Hands free tuning means you can tune all of your strings without ever having to touch the screen - you don't want to have to reach for your ukulele tuner in between tuning each string, and now you don't have to.

This tuner app has two modes:
- Instrument tuner
- Chromatic tuner

The instrument tuner shows you the target notes for the instrument and tuning that you have selected - this is particularly useful for stringed instruments. For example a guitar tuner would show the notes EADGBE if you chose standard guitar tuning, or DADGBE if you chose drop D tuning. Or a violin tuner would show GDAE. You can then just play each string and the tuner will identify whether you are in tune. Pitched Tuner has built in tunings for many common instruments including banjo, bass 4, 5 and 6 string, cello, double bass, guitar including 7 string, ukulele, viola and violin. If your instrument or your preferred tuning aren't included then you can easily create your own in the app. Please email us if you want your tuning added to the built in ones.

The chromatic tuner displays the note that is closest to what is currently being played. If you play an A, it shows an A. This is useful for instruments with lots of notes (piano tuning for example). Some stringed players might also prefer this mode - particularly if you play instruments with several common tunings such as the guitar (it's personal preference!). It means you can quickly tune your guitar from standard to drop D without having to touch the app (assuming it's already visible on your screen).

Pitched Tuner displays a traditional tuner needle and dial. It clearly shows the frequency being played as well as the nearest note and error in cents (one cent is one hundredth of a semitone). The dial then allows you to easily track small changes in pitch. A separate volume indicator tells you how clearly the microphone is picking up your instrument sound.

Other features include:
- Vary the reference tuning pitch away from the common 440Hz.
- Able to adjust for non-concert pitch instruments, for example the B-flat trumpet.
- Choice of light or dark themes
- Adjust the volume sensitivity of the app for quieter instruments and noisy environments.

This tuning app also works as a pitch pipe and can sound a reference note to tune your instrument by ear (which is always a good skill to practice), or use as a target note when you are re-stringing your guitar/violin/etc. You can choose from a pure sine sound, which is precise but quiet, or a simulated piano, guitar or clarinet.

Almost perfect for singing if...

This is a fabulous app for singing. It plays the note so I can practise singing it initially as I listen carefully to the note to develop my aural skills.

The best thing, once I have practised the note I want to sing, I can then check how close I was to hitting the note by singing it and getting the feedback I need to develop accuracy.

The perfect solution for my development as a singer would be to have the ability to switch to different notes and play that sequence on the continuously play feature the app comes with. At the moment, the app only allows for one note at a time to be played continuously. I really hope the developer would consider this, as it is so useful when learning to sing runs and switching from a low to high note quickly so I can better understand the space needed between notes.

Other than that, a perfect app for pitching notes and other instruments.

Thanks for your feedback - I have added this to our list of features for future app updates.

Great tuner and so handy!

I needed to play (my trumpet) with an organ tuned to A=452.5 (about 1/4 tone sharp!). My physical tuner wouldn’t go that high so I looked in the App Store. This one is ideal. Also very quick at catching a run of notes, and even the tuning nuances at beginning and end of some notes! I like the way it works and will probably continue to use it from time to time now I’ve got it!

Custom tunings

I’ve given this five stars for the ability (in the pro version) to save custom tunings. This is great for banjo where most tuner apps only have a handful of the most common tunings in their presets. Well worth £3.99 for this feature. Thank you.
