Doesn’t work

It is really bad

Gets the job done!

I teach middle school orchestra and this app helps me tune the basses while other sections are warming up since it plays the pitch for me to match, unlike a chromatic tuner which gets confused by all the other sounds in the room. It’s not fancy, but it doesn’t need to be.

Do not buy.

Doesn’t work well. Waste of money!!

Severe disappointment

The expectation of tuner apps these days is for actual practical help tuning, not just a pitch pipe. If you are looking for a tuning app like most guitar tuning apps, this is not it! Don't waste your $1.49.

FAQ

What does this app do?

This app is a simple digital tuner designed specifically for the double bass. It helps you tune your instrument to the standard EADG tuning by playing the correct pitch for each string. This makes the tuning process easier, especially for beginners, and contributes to a better overall sound.

How do I use the app to tune my double bass?

To use the app, click on the note corresponding to the string you wish to tune. Then, turn the tuning pegs on your double bass until the sound matches the note being played by the app. It's recommended to make several passes tuning each string to ensure accurate tuning due to slight pitch changes as tension is adjusted.

Is this app free to use?

Yes, this application is available for free. There are no costs associated with downloading or using its tuning features. The app does not display ads or offer in-app purchases.

What are the important safety precautions when tuning a double bass with this app?

When tuning, especially if the instrument is significantly out of tune or has new strings, tune each string gradually and alternate between strings. This helps maintain even tension across the bridge, preventing it from collapsing. Also, ensure the bridge remains perpendicular to the bass and straight, not angled.

Can this app be used for other instruments?

This specific app is designed solely for tuning the double bass to its standard EADG tuning. However, the developer offers separate simple tuner applications for other instruments such as violin, cello, guitar, and ukulele.
