Harmonic Tuner vs PanStrobe

Harmonic Tuner is a precision tuner for string players who want more than just a needle. Tune with a fast live readout, then dig into harmonic snapshots to see how your tone changes after the pluck. Whether you are checking intonation, cleaning up a note before recording, or studying overtones and sustain, Harmonic Tuner gives you a focused workflow without unnecessary clutter. Features: • Chromatic tuning with clear cents and frequency readouts • Instrument presets for guitar, bass, ukulele, mandolin, and slack-key guitar • Smooth live tuning display designed for quick visual adjustment • Harmonic Analysis view with timed snapshots after the initial note lock • Harmonic bars that show the strength of the base pitch and upper overtones • Waveform snapshots for comparing the shape of the sound over time • Save, name, reload, and compare harmonic captures • Adjustable reference pitch (A4) • Advanced controls for noise gate, filtering, smoothing, and tracking stability • Input device selection for supported audio hardware Use the main tuner when you want fast, focused tuning. Use Harmonic Analysis when you want to understand what your note is doing after the attack. Harmonic Tuner is built for players who care about pitch, response, and tone.

PanStrobe is a harmonic strobe tuner built for handpan makers, tuners and players. A handpan note is not one frequency — it is a fundamental with an octave and a compound fifth tuned above it. PanStrobe shows all of them at once as true strobe motion: each ring is one partial, position is phase, and drift speed is exactly how far off you are. When a ring stands still, that partial is in tune. TUNE BY SIGHT • Half-circle strobe disc or horizontal strobe rows — one band per partial • True strobe physics: left = flat, right = sharp, stillness = in tune • Live cents readouts with glitch rejection — and no averaging: the wobble you see is real signal • Strobe divisors (÷2, ÷3, ÷5) slow the pattern for far-off notes HEAR THE WHOLE NOTE • Real-time spectrum with a piano-key axis and labelled peaks • Waterfall view: watch each strike's harmonics evolve over time • Automatic note detection, or lock to the note you are working on BUILT FOR THE WORKSHOP • Chromatic notes with octave control, adjustable A4 reference, global cents offset • Band editor with multi-partial templates (1:2:3 and more) • Pitch pipe on every band — double-tap a strobe for a reference tone • Dark, glare-free UI designed for metal shops • Works fully offline — audio never leaves your device, no account, no tracking FREE TRIAL, FAIR PRICING Every install starts with a full-featured 8-day trial. After that, the free tier stays a single-band chromatic strobe tuner. PanStrobe Pro adds what the app is really for — every partial of a note at once, the spectrum analyser, the band editor and the pitch pipe — monthly, or yearly at about 20% less. Made by Panlab — we build and tune handpans in Hong Kong. This is the tuner we use ourselves.
