## What is Intunator?

INTUNATOR - Improve your Intonation by Ear!
It's ingenious and simple! 

The INTUNATOR is an innovative, new training aid to assist in the development of correct intonation for all wind and string instruments, as well as for vocalists. The App recognizes the note being played and plays it back with the correct intonation. While you are practicing, you will intuitively match the note you are playing to the note you are hearing. You are literally training your intonation by ear as you play. 
At the same time, INTUNATOR is a high quality tuner. The App offers countless training options, and there are no limits to your creativity and flexibility.  

Simply connect your headphones, start INTUNATOR and play what you'd like on your instrument.

It's ingenious!


KEY FEATURES:

Pitch Detection: 
INTUNATOR immediately and accurately recognizes the note being played or sung, thanks to its sophisticated tone detection algorithm.

Audio Output:
The recognized pitch is corrected in equal temperament (like the piano) and output is via headphones or speakers for length of time you choose. You may choose to have the output sound be played in fifths or octaves. Three special sounds were developed specifically for this purpose. When combined with the volume control on your mobile device, they allow you to create the optimal balance between your instrument and the tone being played back by the INTUNATOR.

Visual Aids:
The note you are playing is shown on the Display. You may choose to have the notes named by letter (C,D,E) or using Solfege designations (do, re, mi). A simple graphic shows you your pitch deviation with a white line.

Drone Mode:
Train your intonation in Drone Mode over a continuous drone note of your choice. You may play freely in harmony with the audible drone tone, which will improve your perception of harmony and pitch, and thus your intonation. The notes you play are displayed in interval numbers 1 2 3 ... or in Solfege intervals (do re mi). The white line shows you if your intonation is correct or needs improvement. You may also practice in just temperament in the Drone Mode if you wish!

Transposition:
The note names are shown in their transposed form.

User's Assistent:
An automatic User's Assistant is there to insure a quick and easy application of the App for the user from day one.

There are many possible settings:
56 different instruments to choose from, Transposition, Concert Pitch, Volume of Background Noise, Display of Frequency and 
Deviations in Cents, Mute Button, Notation Preferences in either sharp or flat, 3 different audio output sounds, fifth or octave offset of the control tone, drone mode, just temperament and the Pitch Detection Number, which is determined by the instrument being used.

Tuner:
The INTUNATOR is also a high quality tuner with thehelp of the tone off button.

You can play what you'd like on your instrument. The INTUNATOR will always accompany you with the "right note". Improve your intonation by matching the sound you hear in your headphones to the one you are playing on your instrument.

The app's visual display will help you with this. Over time, you should slowly try to wean yourself off of the visual aid and use your ears more and more to help you improve your intonation. Learn the intonation quirks of your instrument! Correct your intonation intuitively. Enjoy exerting control over your instrument.

Let the INTUNATOR help you to learn how to improve intonation on your instrument! Our method teaches all musicians how to improve their intonation in the most obvious way: By using their ears! Practice independently and without outside help.

### 5/5 — Super hilfreich!

*2025-08-29*

Vielen Dank für diese coole App! Habe lange nach so was gesucht und finde sie mega hilfreich, um meine Intonation zu verbessern. Kann ich nur empfehlen!

### 4/5 — Noten anzeigen

*2025-07-27*

Intunator hilft mir sehr, meine Intonation auf meiner Bassklarinette zu verbessern.
Als Tüpfelchen auf dem I fehlt mir aber eine Anzeige der Note im Notensystem, also nicht nur der Name der Note. Das ganze natürlich im Notensystem des eingestellten Instrumentes (bei meiner Bassklarinette also Violinschlüssel und Bb-Transposition). Das wäre doch was für das nächste Update, oder?

### 5/5 — Sehr hilfreiches Tool, top Support

*2023-04-24*

Prima Tool, erfüllt Erwartungen voll und ganz. Bei Fragen hilft der Support super schnell. Nochmal Danke dafür. Wurde mir empfohlen und ich werde es auch tun.

### 1/5 — Garbage. I want my money back.

*2018-04-19*

This app is terrible. I have it set to the correct instrument. It’s shows me playing in tune. Even displays the correct note I’m playing. But in my headphones it plays a note a half-step away from where I am.

### 5/5 — Excellent intonation training

*2018-04-06*

Works very well, I’m using it with cello.  There is some delay, so it’s best for slower tempo practice.  Wish they would move the “notation preference for sharps/flats” to the main screen because I adjust that differently for each key.

### 5/5 — Excellent App!

*2016-10-05*

This is an incredible app! I use this app to help those students that struggle with the concept of in tune playing. Beginners can use the visual aspect to learn what in tune playing sounds like. 

I also create assignments for my private lesson students and it changed the way I teach intonation.

### 5/5 — DER Weg zum perfekten Sound

*2015-10-14*

TOP Werkzeug auf dem Weg zu einer guten Intonation.
Was nützt einem die optische Kontrolle, wenn man dann doch wieder daneben liegt.
Das entscheidende in der Musik ist das Hören und der richtige Ton.
Endlich kann man das verlässlich trainieren. Danke für die Idee und Umsetzung. Absolut empfehlenswert.

### 5/5 — top

*2015-10-14*

macht was es soll, durchdachte Umsetzung und einfache Handhabung. so mag ich das. die App hilft mir mich auf meine Intonation zu konzentrieren, selbst wenn kein weiteres Instrument dabei ist. am Anfang hab ich noch gebannt auf den Strich gekuckt, klar, aber richtig frei bin ich wenn ich mich auf mein Gehör verlasse. tolles Teil! für mich jeden Cent wert.

### 5/5 — Sensationelles Stimmgerät

*2015-10-04*

Bin Musiktherapeutin und benutze die App täglich bei der Arbeit. Möchte sie nie wieder missen!

### 5/5 — Cooles Teil

*2015-08-08*

Bin begeistert. Als hobbymusiker tue ich mich mit der Intonation manchmal schwer. Aber mit dieser App kann ich endlich mein Gehör trainieren. Da macht das Spielen viel mehr Spaß.

Sound off button
Control tone can be shifted by fifth or octave
Vocals are new to the instrument selection
You can select Do-Re-Mi sound names
bug fix

### 1.8 — 2018-05-10

This app has been updated by Apple to display the Apple Watch app icon.

The sound output has been debugged! INTUNATOR runs flawlessly on all devices with this update.  Additionally, the control tone can now be heard via bluetooth from IOS 10.3, which the stringed instruments will find particularly pleasing. (Due to the transmission technology, however, this will be at a much slower speed). The fastest and best sound output is still achieved via cable connection. We welcome any feedback via the support contact in the APP or at www.intunator.com. We generally respond to questions and problems within a few hours. We also welcome positive reviews in the App Store and on Youtube. Best regards, Markus Rombach

### 1.7 — 2016-07-12

New: The Drone Mode
 
In the Drone Mode, the user may select a drone, i.e. a note which is sustained. The user can play along freely with this tonic note, thereby training his two-voice intonation, e.g. Major and minor scales. The notes played are shown on the display in degrees, using the numbers 1-7 in relation to the selected tonic (1, 2b,2,3b,3,4,5,6b,6,7b,7).

New: Just Temperament

Both the just temperament and equal temperament scales may be used in the drone mode. This gives one, for example, the ability to tune pure thirds and sixths. More information on the differences between equal and just scales can be found on our website at www.intunator.com under the keyword drone mode.

### 1.6 — 2016-05-12

180 degree rotating screen
Individual Settings for Cent and Frequency Display are saved for future use.

### 1.1 — 2015-08-05

The first App world-wide to practise Intonation on your instrument by ear.
