A microtuner or microtonal tuner is an electronic device or software program designed to modify and test the tuning of musical instruments (in particular synthesizers) with microtonal precision, allowing for the design and construction of microtonal scales and just intonation scales, and for tuning intervals that may differ from those of common Western equal temperament.
Free field reciprocity calibration (to give the free-field response, as opposed to the pressure response of the microphone) follows the same principles and roughly the same method as pressure reciprocity calibration, but in practice is much more difficult to implement. As such it is more usual to perform reciprocity calibration in an acoustical ...
Roadie Tuner was created by two bandmates, Bassam Jalgha, an Arabic oud player, and Hassane Slaibi, a flute player. [2] [5] The Roadie co-founders were both engineering students at the American University of Beirut when Jalgha wished there was an easier and faster way to tune his twelve-stringed instrument. [6]

The strobe tuner detects the pitch from either a TRS input jack or a built-in or external microphone connected to the tuner. The first strobe tuner dates back to 1936 and was originally made by the Conn company; it was called the Stroboconn and was produced for approximately 40 years. However, these strobes are now mainly collector pieces.
A microphone registers the vibrations of the air caused by the instrument. In general this technique guarantees a good sound quality, but with two limitations: feedback and crosstalk. Contact pickups register the vibrations of the instrument itself. They have the advantage of producing little feedback and no crosstalk at all.
"google tuner" will provide an instrument tuner that, via an authorised microphone, will listen to one playing an instrument and with a GUI, will show how to bring the instrument in tune. [98] "memory game" will pull up a memory game that one can play to test your memory. [citation needed]
A machine head (also referred to as a tuning machine, tuner, or gear head) is a geared apparatus for tuning stringed musical instruments by adjusting string tension. Machine heads are used on mandolins, guitars, double basses and others, and are usually located on the instrument's headstock. Other names for guitar tuners include pegs, gears ...
