About Tonemap Tuner
Tonemap is a real-time intonation visualizer for musicians. Instead of watching a needle one note at a time, you see your playing painted onto a color-coded grid: green when you're in tune, warmer when you're sharp, cooler when you're flat. Play a scale, a passage, or a whole etude, then look up and see exactly which notes need work. Built by a Jeremy Black, Principal Second Violin of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra, and Concertmaster of the Grant Park Symphony Orchestra in Chicago. Tested and trusted by teachers and professional musicians around the world! THE GRID - Every pitch gets its own cell, arranged in octave rows - Colors show your average intonation on each note, not just an oscilloscope frantically saying you're sharp or flat - Double-tap to clear and start fresh NOTE VIEW - Your playing drawn as a timeline: balloons show each note's average intonation, ribbons reveal vibrato and drift within a single note - Scroll back through up to 20 minutes of playing MADE FOR REAL PRACTICE - Performance pitch: set A4 anywhere from 100–1000 Hz (440, 441, 415, etc.) - Transposition for Bb, Eb, F and all other instruments - Stretch tuning options for better resonance on acoustic instruments. - Customizable colors, light and dark themes, and mini-UI to maximize screen space. - Automatic gain control and adjustable background noise reduction - No account, no ads, and audio never leaves your device TONEMAP PRO (optional subscription) - Quick Record: capture your practice, review at slow speeds with pitch-preserving playback, and export WAV - Hard Mode: the tightest in-tune window, for advanced intonation work - Supports ongoing development Tonemap began as the open-source web app tonemap.live.

What’s new in Tonemap Tuner
Tonemap now runs on iOS 18 and iPadOS 18 — no need to update to the latest system to use it. Fixes • Fixed a crash when returning to Tonemap after another app had been playing audio, or after switching between AirPods, headphones and the built-in microphone. • Fixed a crash when opening the color picker or using the eyedropper while customizing your palette. • Fixed a crash at launch and when closing screens on iOS 18. • Quick Record (Pro): a new recording now always plays back from the beginning, instead of from where the previous take was paused. Thank you to everyone who sent crash reports and feedback. More is on the way, including keyboard shortcuts for iPad (and MacOS), temperaments, and a refined Quick Record interface!
