Tuner

The built-in tuner listens through your device’s microphone and shows the nearest note, how far sharp or flat you are, and the exact frequency in Hz.

Reading the tuner

• The needle gauge shows how far off you are, with colour-coded feedback when you’re in tune.
• The note shows the nearest pitch (with its enharmonic name, such as C♯ / D♭), the cents readout shows how far sharp (+) or flat (–) you are, and the Hz readout shows the exact frequency.
• Locked / Listening… tells you whether the tuner has a stable reading. When a note fades, the tuner holds the last reading (dimmed) so you can see where you ended up.

Getting a steady reading

1. Pluck one string at a time and let it ring.
2. Keep background noise low and hold the device close to the instrument.
3. Tune up to the note – if you’re sharp, drop below and come back up. Strings hold pitch better that way.
4. Wait for Locked before adjusting.

Tunings

The tuner listens to the pitch you play, not to the tuning you’ve chosen in Settings, so it works with any tuning. If you’re tuning to Drop D, for example, it simply shows D when you reach the dropped string – there’s nothing to switch.
