Find your sound
Choose a digital meter, analog needle, or moving strobe. Poly mode displays readings across your strings in one view.
Shift any preset by −12 to +12 semitones with the virtual capo. From standard guitar tuning, −1 gives you E♭ standard and −2 gives you D standard.
Start with standard, drop, open, and sweetened presets. Save custom tunings for four to eight strings with your own labels and frequencies.
Use automatic string selection or lock onto one string. Input Sustain and Noise Gate help tailor the response to your playing environment.
A native, borderless window with a grab strip, visible quit button, and a display that fits smaller workspaces.
Pitch analysis happens on-device. No account, advertising, tracking, or audio uploads. Your presets and settings are stored locally.
