Drone Tuner is a unique app designed to improve your sense of pitch and your sound. It features beautiful drone performances from professional orchestral musicians, as well as a gorgeous and revolutionary visualization that allows you to visualize your place within a chord! This tuner has the following unique features: 1. It has recordings from professional musicians playing long tones List of instrument sounds: Alto Sax Bass Clarinet Bassoon Cello Clarinet English Horn Flute French Horn Guitar Oboe Piano Tenor Sax Trombone Trumpet Tuba Upright Bass Ukelele Viola Violin 2. It incorporates a revolutionary visualization that allows you to simultaneously work on your tuning AND your sound quality. With this visual aid you can also tune yourself within a chord! 3. Drone tuner is the fastest digital tuner for iOS. Instead of detecting your pitch, it uses incoming sound to produce an interference pattern that indicates your harmonic relation to the selected root note in real time. The result is faster and more accurate than other digital tuner. You will see, and feel the difference. For more information, please visit our website! www.drone-tuner.com

Just downloaded the Drone Tuner app and am already finding it so much more useful than my other tuning apps. I’m a professional bassoonist and have been using various drone apps for years, but I’m tired of tuning to sine tones and tuning CDs. This app offers both a wide selection of drone sounds and a tuning feature that actually works while the drone is playing, unlike other apps. You can set the drone pitch to be perfect or have some natural variations, which is much more accurate to a real life playing situation. I can already see the benefits of the app; it’s much more realistic to hear the pitch and blend your sound than trying to be robotically correct with a standard tuner.

This is unlike any tuner I’ve used before. The pitch tracking is so fast and so tightly locked on to what I am playing. Maybe it’s just me but I think it feels like it somehow gets a better sounding result even for basic stuff like tuning the strings on a guitar. I gave up using electronic tuners years ago because I find my ear is more reliable; but recently I find myself using this and actually getting better results, which is embarrassing because I consider myself an advanced level musician.

I absolutely love this app! I have other drone apps that are good but the response and realistic sound of this one is leagues above the others. However, I do wish the app had a feature that would allow automatic cycling through the notes so that the player could work on intonation and hearing that particular note while working on speed without the need to stop, select the note, play and repeat. Also having the option to select how long each note is played as well which range of notes to be played would make for a more complete and efficient practice.

This tuner is amazing. Those of us old enough to remember tuning to an oscilloscope can appreciate 1) the speed of response 2) the detail provided by the waveform and 3) the comfort of the drone reference. I use it both with and without drone playback, and reference it both generally for detail work, or specifically and slowly for slow practice. Congratulations Mani, you have created a beautiful piece of software.
