Chromatia Tuner for Windows

• Better to buy a tuner at the music store

  squeezix6/27/2009

  Pros

  Installed and ran properly right away, it's able to both generate and receive tuning notes, it comes with a nice display and with some program options.

  Cons

  Up on normal notes (with input using just from my laptop microphone), the meter-needle tends skip around all over the place. even when the "don't jump around" settings are turned up all the way. It doesn't work at all with low notes (ie., my tuba.)

  Summary

  For the same price or less, you can get a much more portable and well-behaved physical tuning meter down at your local music store. (If the product were $6 or $8 instead of $20, I'd give it a much higher rating.)

• I'd have to say this is the most competent I've seen

  Pros

  You can't sing or play a horn and watch a pocket-size tuner. They're dark and tiny and miserable............The full screen mode on Chromatia is insane. Unique and extremely visible.

  Cons

  With a shaky voice you have to turn the needle filter all the way up, but it does reach a usable level. There oughta be a volume compressor though, because it has perfectly understandable trouble hanging on to said skaky voice.

  Summary

  Best that I am aware of. Far and away the best for voice training and horn pitch training because of the BIG screen.

  Pros

  Very accurate. Displays the tuning accuracy and the frequency. Excellant for the begining guitarist so you know which E you are tuning to, bass or standard etc.

  Cons

  10 minute time out on the un paid for version. Still plenty of time to get in tune though.

  Summary

  Great piece of software. Well worth the price I think.
