Description

pianoscope turns your iPhone or iPad into the ultimate assistant for creating high-quality piano tunings - for professional piano tuners and passionate pianists alike.

Free two-week trial. pianoscope standard & pro are in-app purchases.


FOR PROFESSIONAL PIANO TUNERS

With the pro edition of pianoscope you can increase your precision and efficiency and make your work less tiresome. Measure the inharmonicity of an instrument at lightning speed, or accelerate the pitch raising of strongly detuned pianos. With pianoscope pro you will meet the expectations of even the most demanding pianists


HOW IS PIANOSCOPE DIFFERENT FROM OTHER PROFESSIONAL PROGRAMS?

Conventional programs determine the required stretch similar to piano tuners working aurally. They start with a temperament octave and go outward from there with fixed intervals. The disadvantage is that you, as a tuner, have to determine which intervals are suitable for the partial structure of an individual instrument.
With pianscope, you only have to decide which intervals should generally be as pure as possible and choose the appropriate style. With thousands of tests, which would be impossible for a human, the program now searches for a tuning curve that optimally meets your wishes.

FOR PASSIONATE PIANISTS

Are you annoyed that your piano soon loses its finely balanced sound after being professionally tuned? Then, with pianoscope standard and some practice, you can create high-quality tunings yourself. You don’t have to to train your hearing for years. All you need is a little manual talent and the courage to learn a new skill.

Excellent app for the professional or dedicated player

I am most impressed. I am a semi retired session musician and studio engineer/producer. I have a 1920 Bechstein model A grand, which I have owned since 1978. I have been regularly found myself exasperated at paying for a professional tuning only to be left with a piano with pitch that sags out of concert in the middle or has random departures from equal temperament. Being cursed with perfect pitch does not make me popular with piano tuners either. Using various tuning apps has helped but it's a Bechstein. It deserves better than something that is more designed to tune up a guitar. Results have been patchy and not really satisfactory. However today I have spent the afternoon using the pianoscope and am really pleased with the result. The piano sounds sweeter than it has done for a long long time. You know it's on song when you can't stop playing and keep playing sustained chords just for the pleasure of listening to them hanging in the air. I am really pleased with the results from this app and have paid up after only 3 days. If you need help you will find the developer very kind and helpful. 10/10.

Professional Piano Tuning App

This is a well thought out tuning app for pianos. Pitch raising and lowering very accurate. Intuitive and easy to use. I have done over 350 tunings so far.

Will not even download so no idea how it is in use. Very frustrating

No opportunity to try as it won’t download to my iPad. Would have preferred to use something like this on a laptop but as mine is windows and I can’t stand iOS then no opportunity for that either.

Developer Response ,
