Beta release
Open source accordion tuner
Explore every reed, note by note.
Free, open source accordion tuning from your microphone or recordings. Beta for Linux and Windows.
A look inside
Every screen you tune on.
From the live reading to the accordions and sessions the app keeps for you.
The tuner
Live waveform, notes, spectrum and a value box per reed, locked so you read a number.
The workshop
Describe each accordion once, its registers and reeds, and reuse it for every session.
Sessions
One accordion per session: its identity, its goal curve, and one set of readings, kept in the app and exportable as a file.
Settings
The input device, the naming, how the reading behaves, and the letterhead your reports print under.
How it stacks up
Free, open, built for accordions.
Compare the features of lingot, Dirk's Tuner and SmeggTuner. SmeggTuner brings accordion tools together in a free, open source beta, with real hardware testing still in progress.

SmeggTuner is a work in progress. Testing on real instruments and audio hardware is still limited. Early testers are welcome.
For now, check readings against a trusted reference before making tuning adjustments.
