Not getting E2 #1

Open reez opened 10 years ago

I don't seem to be getting E2 at all to show when I'm tuning a guitar with this app. Any ideas on that? Doesn't seem to be picking it up. Thanks!

Not sure what the problem could be. The E2 is definitely the hardest string to identify because it has the most underlying harmonics. You could try playing around with the filter that checks for underlying harmonics. Or try a different device... I found that the iphone/ipod works the best, if you are using an ipad make sure you have the mic right up against the guitar body.

Cool thanks. Yeah I tried on iPhone 4 and iPhone 5, tried right up against the guitar and also plugged in to guitar; still couldn't get it to pick up that note.
