Chromatic Tuner<\/h3>\n

Using
\nthe iPhone’s microphone, GuitarToolkit provides a highly accurate
\nchromatic tuner. You can tune to any musical note or to a specific
\ntuning. Need to see it on stage? The high contrast mode is a perfect
\nfit.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Scales<\/h3>\n

Choose
\nfrom a list of scales for each note. You can even see scales for any
\ntuning you choose. The interactive fretboard means you can just touch a
\nnote to hear exactly what it sounds like.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Chord Library<\/h3>\n

With
\nover 500,000 chords, you can ditch those chord books you’ve been
\ncarrying around. Need to hear what a chord sounds like? No problem,
\njust give it a strum. GuitarToolkit also support chords for alternate
\ntunings!<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\"GuitarToolkit<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Chord Finder<\/h3>\n

Playing
\naround on your guitar, find some random fingering that sounds cool, and
\nwant to know what chord it is? GuitarToolkit’s got your back. In Chord
\nFinder mode, just place markers on the right frets and you’ll see what
\nchords it represents.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Metronome<\/h3>\n

GuitarToolkit
\nalso includes a precisely accurate metronome with 13 different sound
\neffects and 12 time signatures. The metronome includes a visible flash
\noption and a tempo tap pad.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

\"GuitarToolkit<\/a><\/div>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Custom Tunings<\/h3>\n

GuitarToolkit
\ncomes with a wide range of alternate tunings, but if you’ve got a
\nfavorite that’s missing, you can create your own with just a few simple
\nclicks.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n
