Fingering Strings vs Cello Tuner

The highest rated and most comprehensive fingering guide available for Violin, Viola, Cello and Double Bass (Simandl and Rabbath positions). Includes double stops! Decide which hand position would be best for the interval or passage. Instantly switch between written note and piano key at the touch of a button. Support for Key Signatures to more easily find a fingering in the music you're working on. • Hand Positions: 15 positions on the Violin, 15 positions on the Viola, 16 positions on the Cello, and 12 Simandl positions or 6 Rabbath positions on the Double Bass. • Display "beginner tape" on the fingerboard as well as string names and colors. • Notate one or two notes in Treble, Alto, Tenor or Bass clef. How to Use: Pick a written note (touch the staff) and have the fingering displayed and concert pitch played. Touch a button and reveal the note on the piano. Play a concert pitch on the piano, and have that pitch's fingering displayed. Touch a button and reveal the transposed note written on the staff. Written and concert pitches are the same for all but the double bass, which transposes, sounding an octave below what is written. • Use the ‘Play' button to repeatedly hear the note or interval being displayed. Selecting a Pitch: Using the Staff (transposed for the current instrument): Simply touch and slide up and down on the staff to select the note, slide to the right or left of the note for sharps and flats. Using the Piano (concert pitch): drag in the area below the keyboard to move the keyboard, touch to play notes, touch & slide to change the pitch. When you glissando up the keyboard, notes will be notated as a raised value (sharps), when you glissando down, notes will be notated as lowered values (flats). Use the up and down arrows to move chromatically up and down without touching the music staff or piano keyboard.

Ready for rehearsal? Cello Tuner brings every C G D A string into focus with a clear pitch needle, note name and frequency reading. Its pitch tracker follows a sustained bowed or plucked note through some background noise, helping you tune with confidence when the room is not perfectly quiet. Standard C G D A tuning Use Cello Tuner for the standard C, G, D and A strings, from the low C to the upper A. Keep the instrument layout in view while you work through each string before a lesson, home practice, or ensemble rehearsal. - See the detected note, octave and frequency. - Follow the needle to check sharp or flat pitch. - Tap a string button to hear a recorded reference sound. - Compare your string by ear, then confirm it on the display. Precision you can see Cello Tuner shows the note, octave and frequency in hertz. Its cent-based needle helps you move from “almost there” to in tune with small, accurate adjustments. When the sound is too uncertain, the detector waits for a clearer note instead of guessing. Get the best of both approaches: follow the needle or tap a recorded reference and tune by ear. A reference for your rehearsal Set A4 between 430 and 450 Hz to match the reference used for your pitch-detection checks. Options include 432, 440 and 442 Hz. Cello Tuner saves your choice for later sessions. Its recorded string sounds stay at their original pitch and do not transpose when you change A4. Follow notes in chromatic mode Switch to chromatic mode to display notes beyond the standard open strings. Use a sustained tone and watch the note name and needle as you check the pitch you are playing. A straightforward start to practice Allow microphone access, then bow or pluck one string at a time, especially on the lower strings. For your most accurate reading, let one string ring clearly near the microphone. If surrounding noise drowns out your cello, move closer to the microphone or find a quieter spot. Cello Tuner gives students, returning players and violoncello musicians visual feedback and sounds to compare. Built on tuner experience Our tuner apps have helped millions of users. Cello Tuner brings that experience to a focused cello tuning check.
