![]() So after ordering a tuning kit, I downloaded this app.Īs any pianist knows, the uppermost octave is particularly challenging to tune by ear because the strings are so short and the tone is so tinny. ![]() ![]() It was so bad that it was just too painful for me to wait for him to come back and fix his mistake. Admittedly, most of us don’t play those notes that often but when they’re out of tune, you realize you play them more than you think. It was horribly sharp and the last 5 notes sounded the same. I had my piano professionally tuned 2 weeks ago but my tuner must have spaced out on the last octave. If it can do a piano this well, I imagine it would be awesome for a guitar or violin. With the paid version I can get more precise visual range and expect it will become very helpful between visits from the pro tuner. Lo and behold it worked! At least well enough to not hurt my ears until the pro can get hear and really get it dialed in. After sampling the lower and upper registers, I could visually see how the octaves were stretched and could pick a point on the +/- measurement that followed the pattern. Finally, desperate for at least a “survival” tuning to hold me until the pro can get here, I tried this app. ![]() I’m not a trained piano tech or tuner but I tried (in vain) to get that middle section at least close using the upper and lower registers as a point of reference but I just couldn’t figure it out well enough to get the temperament restored. Tuner can’t get here for another week so I just needed something to get buy. I reached a point where I just could not stand my piano due to the middle section (where the kids bang out their music) being so out of tune. Liked It So Much, I Bought the Paid Version ![]()
