OnPitch - Vocal Pitch Monitor

There is no option to customize the mic gain. It would be a great app if that was the case. At the moment the microphone is too sensitive to background noises which makes it almost impossible to get a clean run.

Not worth the money. Not easy to use. There are better apps for free..

Thanks

I use this to help me when I record my singing. I just use it for notes that I hold as I have had a tendency to go flat or sharp on those. This helps me maintain pitch. It does detect vibrato, but you can see if it’s still on the same note or if you are getting too wobbly.

I’m horrible at identifying notes by ear, but I can hum out what I want perfectly. So this is the greatest tool for me. I don’t know what I would do without it.

Not working

Why can’t one set the app for flats?

Sometimes I’ll have a tune in my head and I want to play it later on an instrument. This app helps me with that. I’ll try to whistle the melody that I’m hearing in my head. If I do so accurately, I’ll then have a pretty good idea of what notes I’m hearing so I can later try to reproduce it on guitar. I find it easier than just recording myself and trying to reproduce the melody based on the recording.

I never leave reviews but I just had to with this one because I love how this app does one thing and does it so high quality. It’s rare these days to find an app that doesn’t bog you down with so many different functions/optionality, but I love that this app is so simple, it minimizes distractions in that way which is really helpful to making music. I love that it’s not trying to be a million things. And it’s so sensitive and exact. It’s helpful that it shows a continual line so you can raise and lower your pitch in real time to correct the note. I am obsessed now with figuring out the pitch of things and getting better at pitch myself. It’s more accurate than my uke tuner! Some people are saying that this app is discouraging because it shows that even some of the best singers sing off key, but I would just take that as evidence that it’s ok if you sing a tiny bit sharp or flat— it’s just a matter of how exact you want to be. You can be ok with the pink and blue lines if you’re ok with singing a microscopic amount off key!
