Violin Chromatic Tuner

Tap G, D, A or E at the top, then play your violin. The tuner listens to your pitch and highlights the closest matching note, giving you a simple visual guide to help you find the right pitch. Select another string whenever you want to change strings. Please make sure you have enabled your microphone.

Positions are laid out chromatically (one semitone per row) purely to show the note pattern across strings — they don’t correspond exactly to real left-hand hand positions or finger spacing on a physical violin. Frequencies assume A4 = 440 Hz equal temperament. Scroll the fingerboard to reach the second octave. The live tuner needs microphone access over HTTPS and treats anything within 10% of a note's frequency as in tune — play in a quiet room, and use headphones if you're also tapping notes to listen to their pitch.

New here? Try the open strings first (top row of each column), then work down one row at a time — every step down is one semitone. Once a pattern feels familiar, jump to the Metronome to practise it in time.
