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.

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??

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

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.

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.
