I have been waiting for a real Guitar Tuner for OS X for some time now. There are plenty of tuners that play a note that you can then match but nothing similar to the hardware tuners that are out there. In OS 9 I used both of the tuner apps at this site:

Some of you may remember it.

They were extremely accurate. More so than any of my hardware tuners and did a beautiful job.

Is there anyone out there that would be willing to take on the task of programing something similar?

I have the drive to do it but I'm not a programmer. And I don't have the time while teaching 2nd 3rd and 4th grades at my school. But I would be very willing to help, in the testing of the app, in hosting the app's site (I have my two reseller accounts on a very good host), and in the design/look of the app. I have done a variety of design work during the summers when I'm not teaching.

I think it would be great to get something going as this is a need in the guitar playing mac community that is not being met. I don't even care if it ends up being open source of shareware. I just want something!

Just realized this should really be in the Software forum. Could an admin move it for me please?

Sorry about that.

I second that!

Not sure if this helps, but with Logic Platinum, there is an AU plugin (which might just be a free download from the emagic site - this plugin IS an extra) which does in fact display the not that you are playing. I haven't really tried it out as a guitar tuner, but I think it might actually work. All you have to do now is find an app that is AU functional, and more importantly, see if you can find a legal download of that plugin...

sorry i'm not more useful.
