a better way to tune

Description

Helix Tuner is a completely new way to tune your instrument. Unlike all other tuning apps, it does not detect your pitch at all. Instead, it combines the sound coming into the microphone with the desired tuning pitch to create a beautiful interference pattern on the screen. The interaction between your sound and the reference pitch creates an optical illusion of motion when your note is sharp or flat, and it appears stable when you're in tune.
If you are tired of digital tuners that jump around erratically, have slow or delayed response to changes in your tuning, or in general just don't give you good tuning information, then Helix Tuner is the one you are looking for.
When you manually select the tuning note, as opposed to letting the app detect it automatically, Helix Tuner is extremely resistant to background noise and higher string harmonics that confuse other tuners, causing them to jump around to higher notes and give wrong tuning information. Because the visualization system naturally responds more clearly to sounds near the selected tuning pitch, it is useful even when other musicians are playing nearby.

Helix Tuner Reviews

Extremely Accurate

Damien Margo on

United States

Helix Tuner consistently provides me a highly precise result due to the visualization. It seems to offer a special kind of accuracy when reaching the final calibration moments of tuning a note. For this reason it's become my primary tuner over some other more traditional tuner designs.

Absolutely amazing

I hope other people get a chance to try this tuner out. Incredibly helpful for me as a trumpet player. This is all I need for intonation practice. I love the minimal design and the beautiful visuals. It’s made playing long tones a kind of fun game where the goal is to keep the circle from spinning one way or the other

5 star but??

A useful app but wish it responded quicker to detecting the not being played. Look up Drone Tuner by the same developer, it will train your ear to actually play in tune with music.

Intuitively designed

You likely heard the adage, "it was like I took a blanket off my monitors". This tuner had the same effect on my guitar in the room. It's amazing what effect a tight tuning spec can have on complex chords, but the real test is hearing simple triads sound so sweet. The psychoacoustics actually come to mind (what did you just call me?) Helix tuner makes the popular clip on tuner sound... Well just saying well worth dealing with your phone. Automatic mode it's so simple. Just turn it on and forget it.

Love it

Similar to a strobe tuner and has a graph to help represent the shape and/or quality of tone you are making. Not really a Fourier transform, but something like it.

Incredible tuning accuracy

Gets my guitar perfectly in tune without any hassles or delays. One suggestion: it would be even better if it could go to landscape orientation, especially on an iPad. Thanks for a great app!

Best tuner on the App Store

Thanks you so much for providing this super accurate and well designed tuner! Maybe add „sweetened tunings“ as in-App purchases? That way users could support the ongoing development…

Actually....better...?

Coming from a high action freak - this is the only “tuner” that gets me anywhere near this close to spot-on in tune across the fretboard. I don’t get how or why but it’s amazing. If this developer ever finds a way to get this pre-loaded onto a future Snark tuner or something through some sort of partnership, I’ll be first in line to buy. The only downside is that it’s on my phone and not a clip-on!

Amazing

I just used this and it’s really cool. I love the way my guitar sounds my #2 and #6 string are right on! Great! Thank you!
