MIXDOWN TIP 101: USING BING TO TUNE YOUR GUITAR

Finally, there’s a reason to use it. Bing offers a guitar tuning feature when you type in ‘guitar tuner’, with a range of different tunings available. It doesn’t work like a tuner pedal might, detecting how out of tune your notes are, but rather like tuning your guitar from a piano.

 

Another cool feature from Bing is it gives you a working metronome when you search for ‘metronome’, super handy if you are in between a rock and a hard place and really need to keep time. Whilst I perhaps wouldn’t use it to keep time in a studio recording, it’s probably accurate enough for other uses. These two tools were written by summer interns at Microsoft, and might finally direct some traffic to Bing.

 

Check it out over on Bing.
