Description
This is a AUv3 compatible analyser / tuner which can be used as plugin with your favourite DAW such as Cubasis, Meteor, Auria or GarageBand.
This plugin can be used directly within your DAW to analyse either the monitored input signal from your audio device or your mixer output. It uses Apple's accelerate framework to perform fast high resolution 8K fast fourier transformations to display a real time frequency spectrum. The result is an accurate representation of the sampled sound broken down into its frequency components.
You can use this plugin in conjunction with equalisers and parametric filters to obtain a nice flat mix or eliminate hard to find unwanted noise or hiss.
Various display modes include, linear narrow band, logarithmic narrow band, Octave, 1/3 Octave, 1/6 Octave and Mixer Mode with selectable ANSI A and C weighting curves. Up to 64 times oversampling can be applied to obtain more stable readings.
This plugin also includes a Digital Tuner mode which allows real time note detection, frequency and cents deviation from true pitch.
This is one of a suite of AUv3 compatible plugins which will also soon be available from 4Pockets.
What’s New
Version 1.6
v1.6 B7
Increased the detection range of the tuner up to 5KHz.
Please note: This product is not a dedicated instrument tuner. It is monophonic and may have trouble detecting instruments with harmonics that are greater than the fundamental frequency. I have extended the range because I think people were thinking it wasn't working, but I placed restrictions on the detection range that might have been too restrictive.
Ratings and Reviews
Analyzer/Tuner is great, but need HELP!
I use the analyzer to find the tune of my samples and I used to use the tuner which is a guessing game due to complex harmonics of most samples. I noticed you added a “note detect” feature but can’t find anything on the web on how it’s used. Is the green color dot the dominant tone? I figure the numbers on the y axis are the octave, but how do I know the root note of the sample? What do the other color dots mean?
Developer Response ,
The note detection was something recommended to me by one of my users that wanted to be able to visualise chords rather than single notes. Using this view you can see the individual notes and octaves.
The problem as you rightly pointed out is that notes are not pure tones, and contain lots of harmonics. A sine wave is a pure tone and is easy to distinguish, but something like a guitar string or piano are very complex and its hard to determine the fundamental note.
The display uses colours of hue to determine the loudest signal (red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet), so violet/purple is the strongest note. If you are playing single notes and see more than a single orb glowing it is due to harmonics, which can at times be louder than the fundamental note.
I hope this helps.
Very responsive
This is pretty awesome, and responds very well to the input with hardly any lag. The different modes are nice for various applications. It pretty much does what you would want it to, like momentarily freezing the display, etc. My only wish is that you were able to zoom in on the frequencies to narrow the span of frequencies shown on the graph, especially in linear mode.
It’s becoming my go to Tuner
I think I need a little more practice with this app to get the tuner to react in a more smooth fashion it jerks around a little bit for me and I have yet to figure out how to adjust it to get a nice smooth flat or sharp showing. But it is an awesome app to have if you need a tuner for multiple types of devices.
