Intonia is a Pitch Recorder. It's software intended to help string players visualize intonation. It combines the capabilities of an electronic tuner and a digital recorder. It keeps a memory of what it has heard, and displays pitch on a scrolling graph. You can specify what temperament to use: Equal, Just, or Pythagorean.
While it is recording, the display scrolls continuously. Your pitch is displayed as the height of the trace. If you're playing in tune the trace is white, but if you're sharp relative to your chosen scale and temperament, the trace is colored red. If you're flat, the trace is blue.
The free version is limited to one minute of sound storage, A=440, equal temperament.
An in-app purchase will upgrade to the Pro version. The Pro version includes the following:
* 'A' frequency settable between 400 and 499 Hz
* Choice of Equal, Pythagorean, or Just intonation.
* Save and restore audio files
* Rename or delete audio files
* Import and export audio files from/to iCloud
* Up to 60 minutes of sound storage
* Screen is kept on during recording and playback
* Playback and record in background mode while the screen is not showing
Here are some things you can do with Intonia:
* Play a fast passage, and see which notes were out of tune.
* See intonation in just, Pythagorean, or equal temperament.
* Tune your instrument.
* Use as a digital recorder to hear yourself play.
* Get instant feedback.
* Visualize articulations, slides, shifts, vibrato, etc.
* Use it for transcription.
* Works for all string instruments: cello through violin.
* Works for many other instruments as well.

Super helpful for beginner cello player
I’m so glad I found this app.
As a beginner cello player I am struggling with intonation a lot and I was practicing intonation a lot in isolation and was never happy with results.
Analysing recordings, I was surprised to find out I am playing relatively in tune and "bad sound" comes mainly from bowing and overall technique, rather than intonation
Best music app to improve your intonation
This is one of the most useful tools that helps me train and get better. I truly think it’s a must to get better intonation.
I hope the developer can allow free scrolling during replays of recording. So to explain this better, I sometimes zoom in to a specific part and replay it, and the app immediately centralizes the view and zooms out which is annoying. I would like to zoom in and out anywhere and replay without changing the view. Hope I explained it well. Also please support choosing a section (making brackets) and loop replay that part, it comes in handy sometimes.
Thank you!!
Great app
Really helpful and well designed. Only gripe is that it makes my phone run very hot. I wish there was a function to ‘listen’ without recording so that it is less battery intensive.
