Not seeing frequency numbers in Tuner?

This is a great app but in the manual on the Tuner section it says it shows the exact frequencies. On my app all I see is the note and then a +/- cents number but no Hertz frequency numbers at all. Am I missing something or what? Please help

For free?

15 years ago I wanted to experiment with guitar synthesis and purchased a Godin LXG-SA, and a Roland VG-99. $3,000.

I haven’t fully dived into the harmony module, but would like to see the ability to chromatically alter the pitch of each string if that’s possible yet…

Tracking is great with a bass too.

Love this gem

Please update! This is a gem and it needs to be updated. Make a pro version if necessary and charge more. I don’t play my guitars much (I do have a studio though) and I use this app for my bass and guitars to get some wild effects without a million pedals.
This is a great app.. Love it still..

Restore purchases

I can’t restore FX2 effects. Don’t know where to find IAP. Thanks,Michael. Sorry I don’t do face book or any of the other social media. Please help. Today 3-7-21 I received a email from the developer saying they got the issue taken care of. A great way to start the day. Perculator coffee and restored purchases.

Was worth 5 stars, now app is dead

I purchased EVERY IAP in this app. The app barely still works on iOS 12 on iPad Air 2, but the freezer, harmonizer, rainbows etc are now disabled. There is NO OPTION to restore purchases, so I can’t even access what I paid for. Miserable app support.

FAQ

What makes Jam Synth's pitch tracking unique?

Jam Synth tracks pitch with extreme accuracy, up to 1/10th of a cent, similar to a strobe tuner. This allows for more organic synth sounds and precise control over string bends and vibrato, surpassing typical pitch-to-MIDI converters.

Can Jam Synth control other synthesizers?

Yes, Jam Synth features MIDI OUT and guitar-to-MIDI conversion. It can control other MIDI synths through Core MIDI accessories and Virtual MIDI, converting string bends and vibrato to MIDI pitch wheel data.

What kind of effects are available in Jam Synth?

Jam Synth offers a variety of unique FX, including a fully featured LFO, stereo delay with ping pong capabilities, a 3D chorus for stereo dimension, an intelligent harmonizer for musically correct harmonies, and a rotary vibe for psychedelic sounds.

Is Jam Synth compatible with different devices?

Jam Synth is compatible with iPhone, iPad, and iPod. It also works with guitar and audio interfaces made for iPhone and iPad.

How often is Jam Synth updated?

The latest version of Jam Synth is 1.2.3, which was last updated on February 22, 2023. This indicates a history of updates to improve functionality and add features.

What is the age rating for Jam Synth?

Jam Synth has an age rating of 4+. This suggests it is suitable for a wide range of users and does not contain mature content.

Does Jam Synth offer different subscription tiers?

The provided data indicates Jam Synth is free with in-app purchases, not a subscription-based model. Users can download and use the core features for free, with optional purchases available.

How does Jam Synth handle picking dynamics?

Jam Synth can set its filter to track picking dynamics, allowing for more expressive control over the synthesized sound. Picking dynamics are also converted to MIDI volume expression data when using MIDI output.
