CBG online tuner, what features would you like?

Posted by Dirty Roger on November 14, 2010 at 8:21am in Performances, How to Play, Lessons, Concerts
I'm going to program an online CBG tuner.  What features would you like/recommend?

Could do with a definitive list on standard tunings.

I'll make this available for free on my blog and see if shane could put it on this page some place

    Hi Roger,

    Have you looked at the shareware AP tuner http://www.aptuner.com/cgi-bin/aptuner/apmain.html
    It has the option of adding new tunings as required ("Note" and then "Edit note presets" on the top tab) Also because it has a tuning bar to get close to the note you want and then an accurate needle to fine tune you always know where you are and never overtune and bust a string.

    Just a tone generator, yes like that with fewer strings. I have a guitar tuner on my blog (http://www.dirtyguitarguide.com) already and it will be similar but more options.

    Just curious...this program will not receive the player's input and indicate sharp or flat, right? This will be a tone generator? Are you looking to do something like this but with fewer strings? http://www.get-tuned.com/guitar_tuner.php

    Are you generating a tone, or sampling a plucked string?

    I would aim to do both plucked string and tone. With a repeat function for each string! As for standard tunings i would create patterns for about 10 standard patterns and people can you variations of each to tune to their liking.

    Any further ideas??

    Looooooong list of standard tunings, 3 and 4 string, and adjustable so the oddballs can customize for their own tunings.


    And maybe even a single string diddly tuner.
