Tuner

See every cent.

Play a string. The note, the offset and the direction show at once, and the paper roll draws your pitch while you turn the peg. Green is in tune. Yellow, orange and red show how far you are.

Tempered third. In equal temperament, a major third is 13.7 cents wider than a pure third, so an open chord beats. Turn on Tempered third, and the open tuning rings clean.

The Triad tuner tunes a guitar string by string. The paper roll draws the pitch, and each string gets a check mark when it is in tune.

Demo readings. On your iPhone, Triad listens to your instrument.

Metronome

Keep perfect time.

20 to 300 BPM with accents, subdivisions, tap tempo and a speed trainer. The audio thread counts the samples to each click, so the tempo does not drift. The beat on the screen stays with the sound, also on Bluetooth headphones.

Turn the dial. Tap a beat to change its accent. Press play to hear it.

Tone generator

Tune by ear.

Play any note, or any frequency from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, as a sine, triangle, sawtooth or square wave. Tap a string to hear its note, like a pitch pipe. The tone fades in, fades out and glides to each new pitch, so it never clicks.

Range
20 Hz to 20 kHz
Waveforms
Sine, triangle, sawtooth, square
Loudness
The same for each waveform

Tune without opening the app.
