LINGOT - LINGOT Is Not a Guitar-Only Tuner

Surfing the web I found an interesting application for musician :): LINGOT.

LINGOT is an acronyms for "LINGOT Is Not a Guitar-Only Tuner"

The description on lingot website says:


LINGOT is a musical instrument tuner. It's accurate, easy to use, and highly configurable. Originally conceived to tune electric guitars, its configurability gives it a more general character. (Tuning another instruments has not been tested).

It looks like an analogic tuner, with a gauge indicating the relative shift to a certain note --found automatically as the closest note to the estimated frequency--, indicating that note and its frequency.

The note will be found automatically, since the program hasn't any manual function mode (indicating the note to tune manually), for mantaining its general purpose.


I wrote an ebuild for Gentoo/Linux. You can find it here.

Happy guitar tuning ;)
