✓ Great tunerI love this tuner and have used it for many years. Please keep it updated!.ץVersion: 1.4

✓ Great TunerThis is a great tuner app. The frequency graph is a really neat feature. I do wish that the frequency axis of the graph could be rescaled in order to get more accurate frequency readings from the graph though. For example, being able to make the max 1000Hz with 100 Hz increments would be very useful..JettrscgaVersion: 1.1

✓ Great and simpleGreat tool Gets to the point and very accurate.ALKENDIVersion: 1.1

✓ Good tunerI like seeing the past 5 seconds of tuning. maybe have up to 10 seconds when tilt iPhone horizontal. I'd like to be able to keep the transposition after quitting app and then starting. Would like to have different levels of sensitivities while tuning a brass or woodwind instrument.CymanskiVersion: 1.1

✓ Best and most versatile tuner that I have come acrossThis is to my mind by far the best and most versatile tuner that I have come across. The Trace Tuner is unique in how it measures and displays tuning and it’s also extremely sensitive. It is easy to play and evaluate even very short and quiet notes, invaluable for instrumentalists wanting to check and improve their tone production. You can see several seconds’ worth of history, thus easy to see back with a great deal of accuracy over the passage just played. I don’t know of any other tuner able to do this. It is possible to do basic extras such as changing the overall pitch (A=440 or other values). Moreover, it has the really cool additional feature of displaying an accurate frequency map showing all overtones and harmonics including their respective volume - you can in effect SEE TIMBRE. No, I don’t receive a commission for saying all this and I have no personal connection with the developers. I have used this tuner for many years now. It is BRILLIANT. Thanks for creating it..Torbs1Version: 1.4

✓ Back againI had this app. a while ago. It was deleted from my iPod and was not available. I'm glad to see it back. One feature I like is that it shows he frequencies in the frequency mode. Like another reviewer, I too would like to be able to puck the range of the display, but at least there is a reference. Thanks for making this app. Available again..TheeQwertyVersion: 0

✓ What a great tuner!This is a different way for a tuner to work but it is superb. So far have used it with soprano sax and guitar. Really helpful to get right into the middle of a note. I think other tuners often give a false positive as soon as you hit the pitch. This provides a trace and helps me centre my pitch - especially valuable on the tricky sop sax. Outstanding and being free is a bonus..SinglereedVersion: 1.1

✓ Mostly Great...Some *quick* tests with my keyboard were showing this was accurate to within a few cents, which meets the needs of the vast majority of people. The running tape is nice so that you can *see* trends and errors and adjust accordingly. The "Freqencies" view is neat but has few practical applications because there isn't enough resolution in the frequency domain to gain knowledge of the frequencies--or better yet notes--that are being played. (I'm not quite sure what the page is really for other than looking neat, as it doesn't accomplish any of the use cases very well (e.g. overtone analysis, polyphonic tuning, decomposition of a polyphonic source into it's notes). Lastly, after having this on my phone for awhile I started having the "20 second" lock-up bug where everything would work fine for about 10-20 seconds and then it'd just freeze up. Deleting and reinstalling it seemed to fix the problem, and I actually suspect that the issue is with the iOS 4 multitasking, and that just killing the app and restarting (or equivalently, restarting the phone) would fix the problem as well. Overall, it is worth the purchase and is working well for my needs (tuning of a guitar, flugelhorn, and trumpet, as well as checking how in tune I am with certain trumpet trouble pitches like C#4 that need to be corrected via slides.).PaplooTheLearnedVersion: 1.1

✓ Practical tuner on the goThis tuner is great for practicing long notes when practicing tone tuning and tone quality on a flute. The frequency spectrum option is very nice to practice the timbre of the notes, that is the strength of the overtones. I use an iPod Touch with an inexpensive external microphone (one used for phone calls over the internet), and this seems to work just fine. I have tested it when playing long notes and it work quite well once it locks into the fundamental frequency (for the tuning option). While I have an electronic tuner, it only tests one note at a time, which makes it cumbersome to practice long notes while playing the various scales; it is also much bulkier, so not very suitable for travel. You are likely to have the iPhone or iPod Touch with you anyway. It is good that you can set the notation and pitch. If the iPod Touch does not have a microphone (either build-in or external) the program will not start..HansieboysirVersion: 1.1

✓ Better than any clip on tuner I've ownedV1.3, iOS 6.1.3, iPhone 4S This thing tunes *very* tight. For best results, you do need to reduce background noise, so a clip adapter would be nice. Can't get away from others? Simply place your phone on the instrument. I play mandolin, so there's that inherent problem of matching strings. Clip on tuners and needle-type apps leave me wondering why it sounds "off" even though the needle is centered. Not with this tuner. If it says you're in tune, you can bet on it and you can hear the difference. The display takes a moment to figure out. Just play a note and it becomes self-evident. Tweak the tuning gently and the 5 second display shows your progress. Great idea. That 5 second display may be why you can see such accurate results. I'm not sure why others want more accuracy. This is my only trusted tuner..Dageeb1Version: 1.3

✓ This is really coolI went for this app because it looked like such a good idea, had no reviews and only cost £0.59. Makes absolute sense for playing in tune as the trick is not only to hit the note but also stay on it. Like this. A simple good idea well implemented..Dafydd 63Version: 1.1

✓ The best tuner app for prosCan't believe this isn't the top tuner app, perhaps there is a similar one that is more popular. Shows pitches for the past few seconds, excellent for voice training, learning the violin, or setting guitar intonation accurately. The only guitar tuner I will use; most tuners show you an average of pitches, which is inaccurate (guitars are sharp when plucked for example); this shows the actual sampled pitch..Gk-toVersion: 1.3

✓ Very accurate!I was having trouble tuning my ukulele with other paid apps. There's not a lot of margin for error with this tiny instrument. This app is very easy to use and my uke sounds so sweet now. Thank you! From the looks of the settings page, this app could probably use a refresh to bring it in line with the latest Apple graphical standards, but that's a minor niggle for an app that really improved the sound of my instrument, and therefore, my playing!.Rupert J. PupkinVersion: 1.3

✓ Fantastic!I really needed a precise tuner that was easy to use and could help me get my alto sax in tune. I got this because I needed a tuner for a marching band assignment, and this definitely worked like all tuners should. The tuner has good "hearing" so to speak, in that it: picks up on a lot of noise, can tell you the frequency (if you need to be that specific), but will pick up some background noise. I felt that I was able to see my adjustments, get my instrument in tune, and really feel when my sax was in the "golden range". I definitely recommend this to musicians who need an exact tuner. It was well worth the small price!.AndbombVersion: 1.3

✓ Does the jobSaves memory and does the job- 5Star..JorontoVersion: 1.3

✓ Great tuner with transpositionGreat little app! Supports different tuning modes! Also good training aid to make sure you play in tune..LA Old NoobVersion: 1.1

✓ Revolutionary way to tuneWorks well with voice and recorder on my new ipod touch that has a microphone. Graphically it's a better way to tune then a needle bouncing around. Some tuners don't mention how they work. This one listens to you. It doesn't play a note for you to match..SnozzlebottomVersion: 1.1

✓ Can't believe it's freeThis style of tuning works really well. When a string is initially struck, you can see the spike in pitch as a predictable pattern. Having a readout of the past five seconds of pitch is brilliant. It gives you a more stable reference to work with..Dave Om7Version: 0

✓ Best and most accurate tunerWorks perfectly..Rsturner2002Version: 0

✓ Highly enlighteningThis is a wonderful app in many ways, and not just for tuning. The frequency view is quite fun and allows you to analyze the spectrum of all the noises around you. It's really neat seeing the harmonics pop up as a bunch of spikes in this view. Many thanks to the author for making this free..Cosmic BackgroundVersion: 0
