Sing, whistle, hum or play an instrument and watch as Musique tracks the musical pitch in real-time. Record it live! See exactly what note is being played. Use it to tune your instrument, play along to scales, or just experiment for curiosity and fun! Do you have a tune in your head that you can hum or whistle but can't figure out what notes to play on a piano or other instrument? Discover what they are with Musique. Have you ever wondered what is the range of your singing voice? Or the range of your speaking voice? What note is the beeping of a reversing truck? Solve life's greatest pitch mysteries. As usual with this kind of app, the pitch detection is not perfect. It works with one note a time and fails when given polyphonic music. A quiet environment is advised although it can still function with background noise, just make sure you are loud and clear! The detectable range is from C2 to F7. Feel free to send feedback or feature requests by using the feedback option in the app or by visiting https://www.facebook.com/musique.15 Last but not least in case you missed the instructions screen, swipe right to open the menu, and tap the screen for the record button!
