truerussian558 Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 simply said it isnt a good idea, it would be cheaper to buy one, as people making one, i doubt anyone has, but your best bet is too look at the patents and try to discern from them how it works.

lovekraft Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 http://mattzz.dyndns.org/twiki/bin/view/Projects/GuitarTuner http://www.myplace.nu/avr/gtuner/ Or you can make an (almost) analog tuner by making a switchable tone generator that produces the 6 notes of the standard tuning, and comparing the output to the guitar pitch electronically. Display can be a VU meter biased to its center point or a bargraph style readout. Of course, you can still buy one cheaper! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Jabsco Posted September 6, 2004 Report Share Posted September 6, 2004 (edited) Use a tuning fork! You just need to get one, for lets say G. Then tune your G string to that, and relitivily tune to that using 5ths, or harmonics. thats what I use to do untill I lost mine. (EDIT) oh, sorry I didnt see that you wanted to use it as a collage project. Edited September 6, 2004 by Dr. Jabsco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
