Hopefully someone will be able to make a descent tuner for Sailfish.Įdit: The stroboscopic view mode is a particularly nice addition, as it is, in my opinion, a very intuitive way of seeing how far from a note you are.

I wish there was a way to port MaxMSP to anything else, as it is the only "programming" I know how to do. Its in perfect working order and functions 100 correctly. I think most people who need a tuner also know which notes they are aiming for. This is a tronical tuner taken from a 2013 Gibson SG 70s tribute. If the user were to choose which tuning they were aiming for via a selector. As well as a pin that went between -50 to +50 cents where 0 was the exact tone that it was "closest to".Īdding stuff like tuning-guides (strd guitar, bass and ukulele, and alternative tunings) would be fairly easy to implement. It displayed the note it was closest to (on a twelve note scale) and the frequency it was currently reading. It analysed the sound that was passed through the microphone, filtered out small fluctuations that happened within a very short timespan (to avoid "noise" in the readings) and I also ran the whole signal through a something-or-other that calculated the average (or mean) within a certain, very short, timeframe. I am not a programmer, but I once made a descent tuner using MaxMSP. There is also a quite detailed description of the app and its features here. I really miss something similarly accurate on Sailfish. Airyware tuner on WindowsPhone is the best tuner I have tried so far.
