Accurate Detection for Low Frequencies

The tuner is optimized specifically for low-pitched instruments like bass guitars. Whether you're tuning a 4-string, 5-string, or 6-string bass, it can precisely detect frequencies as low as 30 Hz. It processes sound in real time through your device’s microphone, providing instant feedback on the pitch you're playing.

Supports Multiple Bass Tuning Configurations

Supports Multiple Bass Tuning Configurations

From standard E-A-D-G tuning to drop D, C-standard, or B-standard tunings, this tool automatically detects the pitch and guides you to your desired note. It supports extended tunings for 5- and 6-string bass guitars, making it perfect for progressive, metal, or jazz bassists.

Real-Time Visual Needle Display

Real-Time Visual Needle Display

A highly responsive visual tuning needle makes it easy to identify whether you're flat, sharp, or perfectly in tune. When your string is too low, the needle tilts left; when it's too high, it tilts right. As you adjust the tuning peg, the needle moves accordingly and locks in the center when the pitch is accurate.

No App or Installation Required
