## What is SUS4 Pitch Pipe?

The band is about to tune and there is no piano in the room, or no tuner that everybody can hear. Tap the note here and it holds until you stop it.

Hold a steady concert pitch for tuning, long tones and intonation work.
Any note from C1 to B8, with A4 anywhere from 430 to 450 Hz, so the band tunes to one reference.
Fully on-device: no cloud, no account.

Tap a note and it keeps sounding until you tap it again. Tune to concert B flat or A before a rehearsal or a gig, play long tones against it and listen for the beats to slow down and stop, or hold the tonic under a scale and check each interval by ear.

It needs no microphone, so the tone stays clean in a loud band room, backstage or in a church.

• 12 notes per octave, octaves 1 to 8
• A4 reference from 430 to 450 Hz, for bands that tune to 442
• Notes sound at concert pitch, named with sharps: B flat is A#
• Works offline, with no mic permission

For trumpet, trombone, horn, tuba and sax players, brass bands, big bands and wind bands, and choirs that need a starting note.

Everyone gets two notes a day. Pro, or SUS4 All-Access across the whole range, removes the daily limit and adds Pitch Pipe+: an interval drone (the root with any interval up to an octave above it), chord drones (major, minor, sus2 and sus4) for a section tuning a chord, a glide between two notes and five tones from sine to plucked.
