Start quietly. Loud tones can hurt your ears and your speakers.

How to use it

  1. Pick a pitch

    Drag the slider, type it, or jump an octave with ½ × and 2 ×.

  2. Press Play

    Start with the volume low and raise it slowly.

  3. Sweep or noise

    Sweep glides between two pitches. Noise plays every pitch at once.

Tips

  • Find a rattle

    Sweep slowly from 40 to 200 Hz. The panel or part that buzzes is loose.

  • Check the wiring

    Play through Left only, then Right only, to check which speaker is which.

  • Tune by ear

    A above middle C is 440 Hz. The note name shows beside the number.
