Needle displays are hard to read and don't allow you to enjoy the benifits of the expensive monitor you have sitting in front of you. This chromatic musical instrument tuner includes a display that is not only easy to read, it supports 'full screen' and 'top most window' modes! This tuner is not only capable of running alongside your digital audio workstation (DAW) software... it is designed for it! A tone generator that is adjustable to any frequency to tune by ear and a metronome supporting simple beat patterns are also included.
The tuner is a fast and efficient chromatic tuning audio capture application that uses DirectSound to capture audio signal from the audio hardware in your computer. The captured signal is translated into a notes and displayed on your computers screen to assist in the tuning of musical instruments or vocals. The tuner provides precise accuracy of an audio signal with a +/-1% margin of error, compared to the best competitors +/-3% margin of error.
The tuner captures audio signals through standard Windows device I/O that allows you to plug into virtually any audio input device interface, including standard line and mic in. Plug a guitar's cable into the supplied 1/4" to 1/8" converter input line of your audio hardware. Launch the tuner and ensure that the application is getting signal. Tune your guitar as you would with any standard tuner. The tuner also works through your standard microphone line in as well for non-cabled instruments and vocals.
The tuner utilizes the standard MS-Windows ASIO Driver interface. Most low-end, mid-range, and high-end digital audio I/O boxes utilize this audio device driver standard, and will work seamlessly with the tuner. Even the standard Mic and line in 1/8" ports are compatible with the tuner.
Simply double click on the title bar to enable the "full screen" mode and the tuner can easily be viewed from a distance.
