How to tune

Three steps, one string at a time

  1. 1Allow the microphone. Any built-in laptop or phone mic works. Get close to the instrument in a quiet room.
  2. 2Play one open string. The tuner finds the nearest note and shows which string it thinks you played.
  3. 3Turn the peg until the needle is centred. Left of centre is flat, tighten. Right is sharp, loosen. Green means in tune.

In tune? Now play something

The same ears follow you through a whole piece.

Musicalio turns sheet music, even a photo of a printed page, into notes and tab, then waits for each note you play.
