Piano Tuning Assistant: Measuring Inharmonicity & Building Stretch Curves
Read more: Piano Tuning Assistant: Measuring Inharmonicity & Building Stretch CurvesMost tuner apps treat a piano like a giant guitar: one note, one target frequency, tune to zero cents. More important, they “mush” all of the harmonics of each note into an “in-tune” or “out of tune” signal on a needle. Even “single strobe” tuners do this! This fails spectacularly for pianos. A real piano…

Independent Strobes: How Multi-Harmonic Strobe Tuning Changes Everything
Read more: Independent Strobes: How Multi-Harmonic Strobe Tuning Changes EverythingYou might be used to tuner apps that show you one thing: is your fundamental pitch sharp or flat? That single number, that single needle, that single spinning disc, tells you whether the root frequency of your note is close to target. But it does not tell you anything about the harmonics, the overtones that…

Cent Accuracy in Tuners: Why 0.1 Cent Matters
Read more: Cent Accuracy in Tuners: Why 0.1 Cent MattersWhat is a Cent? A cent is a logarithmic unit of pitch: 100 cents make a semitone, 1,200 make an octave. Because cents are logarithmic, their Hz-value depends on register – at A4 (440 Hz) one cent is about 0.254 Hz, while at A1 (55 Hz) it is only about 0.032 Hz. This mirrors how…

Vibe Coding: Does AI Build our Strobe Tuner?
Read more: Vibe Coding: Does AI Build our Strobe Tuner?We built a fake piano with AI to test our strobe tuner. But we never vibe code StroboPro itself. Here is why that distinction matters for quality.

Strobe Tuner vs Regular Tuner: Complete Technical Comparison
Read more: Strobe Tuner vs Regular Tuner: Complete Technical ComparisonA technical comparison of the two fundamentally different approaches to electronic tuning; published on blog.strobopro.se A strobe tuner is fundamentally more accurate than a regular (FFT) tuner. It compares the phase of your instrument’s waveform directly against a reference signal. Consequently, it delivers 0.1 cent precision at every frequency. This includes the 30 Hz low…
