ptune vs Scouter Synth

pTune is a fast, accurate polyphonic tuner built for guitar players who want to spend less time tuning and more time playing. POLYPHONIC TUNING Strum all six strings at once. pTune detects every string simultaneously and shows you exactly which ones need adjusting — no more tuning string by string. CHROMATIC TUNER Need to tune any single note? The chromatic tuner detects any pitch with high precision and shows cents off perfect. BUILT-IN METRONOME A clean, precise metronome with adjustable tempo and time signature — perfect for practice sessions. KEY FEATURES • Polyphonic detection — tune all strings in a single strum • Chromatic mode for any instrument or alternate tunings • Adjustable reference pitch (A = 415–466 Hz) • Custom tuning profiles • Adjustable detection speed • Built-in metronome with haptic feedback • Clean, distraction-free dark interface • Works offline — no internet required • No ads, no tracking, no account required PRIVACY FIRST pTune processes audio entirely on your device. Nothing is recorded, stored, or sent anywhere. The microphone is used solely for real-time pitch detection. Designed for acoustic and electric guitarists, beginners and pros alike.

ScouterSynth is a music tracker built like a handheld console. Eight tracks, a D-pad, two buttons, and no menus — every operation is a chord you can play with your thumbs. WRITE Phrases of sixteen rows, chains of phrases, and a song made of chains. Write a bassline once and place it four times with different transposes; change it later and every one of those places changes with it. Phrases can be shorter than sixteen rows, so six-eight is as easy as four-four. SOUND A synth voice per track — saw, pulse with PWM, triangle and sine, through a resonant filter and an envelope — or a sample, played whole or sliced. Wavetables for the sounds a plain oscillator cannot make. Per-tick tables for automation that runs faster than a row. SAMPLE Import from anywhere on your phone, or record straight into a slot from the microphone. MP3, AAC, M4A, AIFF and WAV are all converted on the way in. Whatever you choose is copied into your project, so a saved song carries its audio with it. MIX Ten lanes on one screen — eight tracks and two send buses — with level, pan, mute and solo, and three effect slots on each: filter, bitcrush and a tempo-synced delay. Watch the desk as a set of numbers or as ten live traces. PLAY A performance pad wires any two parameters to an X and a Y axis and moves every track at once. A grid of twelve pads holds six punch-in effects — an octave down, tape slow, a stutter, a bitcrush, a high pass and a low pass — held rather than latched, so nothing can be left on by accident, and six one-shot samples to fire over the top. SEE A radar sweep that reads the mix by frequency, a scope on the output, and six palettes to put it all in. INTEGRATE MIDI in and out with clock. A Bluetooth game controller, mapped button by button to whatever pad you own. Export the whole arrangement to a WAV. Songs, samples and exports all sit in the Files app where you can reach them. No accounts. No subscriptions. No network. The manual is inside the app — press SELECT and B on any screen.
