About
Tine is a precision tuner, metronome and drone made to feel like the best hardware you've owned. It opens straight into tuning, reads cleanly from across a room, and keeps perfect time.
TUNE ANYTHING
• Chromatic tuner with a spring-damped needle, or a true strobe accurate to a tenth of a cent
• 40+ instruments and tunings: guitar (6, 7, 8, 12-string), bass (4, 5, 6), ukulele, banjo, mandolin, violin, viola, cello, double bass, winds and brass in written pitch, voice, oud, Highland pipes
• Strum check: strum all six strings and see which ones are off
• Reliable low notes, down to the 31 Hz low B on a 5-string bass
• Octave guard warns before you over-tighten a string

• Historical temperaments: just intonation, Pythagorean, meantone, Werckmeister III, Kirnberger III, Vallotti, Bach/Lehman
• "Adopt this pitch": play the piano's A and Tine matches it
KEEP TIME
• Sample-accurate click that never drifts, even in the background
• A pendulum that swings in sync with what you hear
• Any meter, per-beat accents, subdivisions, swing and cross-rhythms
