Tuner
Pluck a string and watch it on the board. The string you play lights up and vibrates, its note slides up when you are sharp and down when you are flat, and each string is captured once it holds in tune.

How close is in tune?
Measured in cents, a hundredth of a semitone.
Turn it up in a quiet room or for a soft instrument, down if the room is noisy.
Tips
- Pluck one string at a time and let it ring.
- Tune up to the note: if you are sharp, loosen below it, then tighten up to it.
- A string turns green and is ticked once it has held in tune. Reset clears the ticks.
- Your sound is analysed on your device and never recorded.
