Hey, Frank!
Firstly, some gratitude. I needed to do a pitch raise today (about 40 cents flat) and it went really well, quite a few notes ended up being spot on when I went to do the fine tuning afterwards. Others were close enough (mostly because I wasn't too careful where I raised them to) to get the job done without much more effort. So, thank you for a pitch raise function that is easy to follow and works well!
Now, I'm not the fastest with pitch raises or tuning, but I'm working on it. One thing I quickly wished for was a more efficient way to SEE where the string pitches are so I don't have to fumble around with mutes as much (if at all). So, I have an idea that I think could be REALLY helpful. I'm sure you're aware of the frequency spectrum plot that Tunelab uses. I have wondered if that kind of thing would be particularly useful for pitch raises, allowing the user the ability to quickly see with their eyes where the two/three strings are relative to the overpull target and thus not be burdened by the mutes or the potential confusion of what is being heard. That way, the user can jump immediately from one pin to the next and zip right up the scale with confidence that the pitch is close enough for the fine tuning to be done without extra effort. Ideally, the width of the plot would follow the width of the pitch indicator bar or even (optionally) replace it.
Does that make sense? I'm sure the frequency spectrum plot could be useful in other ways, but this would be especially helpful for pitch raises. The current indicator works great for normal tuning use.
What do you think?
