Audio Tuner Mobile Java
Keep your musical instrument in tune with your Java enabled mobile phone, with Audio Tuner. This includes most mobiles, including Nokia. See a screenshot (click the image to close).
Audio Tuner can tune your guitar, ukulele, violin, piano, bass guitar, banjo, mandolin, cello and autoharp.
This software provides two ways of tuning your musical instrument:
- Spectrum Analysis: play the instrument into your microphone and the software will tell you if the note is flat or sharp. Not available on all mobiles.
- Tone Generation: the software can play the correct note for you to tune to.
Now no matter where you are, you can keep your musical instrument in pitch perfect tune.
