Added low octave when using in Drone mode. This provides a more distinct overtone series allowing the pitch center to be even more pronounced. Shout-Out to Jeff at AU. Great weekend at the brass clinic. Already looking forward to next year.

Significant Improvements with more on the way! New in this release: 1. Pitch Calibration - Because of many requests for A-442, you can now use the new Settings screen, to adjust pitch calibration up to a full half-step away from A-440. 2. Two-Finger Swipe - Modify the root pitch up or down by just a swipe of the screen. Makes it easy to move up and down chromatically without having to take attention away from the ensemble. 3. Chromatic Scale added. 4. Auto-Play can now be set from the Setting Screen to play half notes, quarter notes or eighth notes. 5. Three modes for interval display. From the Settings screen you can now select to see: - All intervals with scale tones high-lighted - Only see the scale tone intervals - See the intervals as "note names" rather than interval 6. Three modes for enharmonic renderings. From the Settings screen you can now select to see: - Flats - Sharps - Flats and Sharps 7. Minor bug fixes These enhancements were the direct result of input from users. Keep sending us your suggestions and share this app with friends, colleagues and students.
