Looking for good easy to use inexpensive tuner

Hi,
I am looking for a good, easy to use, inexpensive tuner. Not one you use in a rack or on a pedal, but one you use on the computer. I looked and there are a ton out there so I figured I would look for recommendations here.
I do not like the way GBs works. It fluctuates too much as the note decays and drives me nuts. I want a simple one, that works great. (If it has a feature that helps in tuning a 12 string, than thats a plus, but not a deal breaker). Simple and accurate is most important.
Lastly I noticed some they sell are AU and some are stand alone. Is one better than the other?
Thanks,
Paul

Strangedogs,
Thanks for the link but if you read the review of it on the site, it is terrible. The users on VT hated it. It got 1 star out of 5. I was looking for a recommendation of one that someone has actually "used" themselves and likes it from experience using it.
There was a link that someone posted there for a free tuner from emagic that they said is great, but all the links I found with google run to a dead end unfortunately.
Paul
BTW: boy do those 12 strings take forever to tune. I was jamming with a friend over new years weekend and it took him forever to tune up, (and he has an excellent ear).

  • Looking for good book on using DSLR for shooting video

    I recently purchased a new Canon t3i DSLR. I've been watching videos on YouTube and it seems like this camera is capable of taking great HD video. My test videos look nothing like these examples. I am looking for a good resource that will teach me what settings to use, especially manual settings for shooting videos. Of course it would be great to find something specific to my camera, but I'm sure that the techniques will apply to most DSLRs.
    Thanks

  • Looking for good backgrounds to use with a green screen?

    Any ideas where I can ding them?

    Hi
    There are lot's of Pro qualities at Pro costs.
    I just got to a normal textile reseller and bought blue and green sunshade fabric
    This worked greatly - to start testing and learning
    My main problems are
    • Width of fabric - it is near to impossibly to combine two fabrics to get a wider area. No one I know of can make invisibly seams.
    • Wrinkles - Tough to iron a 3m(10ft) x 3m(10ft) fabcric
    • Lighting - Lighting needs to be even
    • Support - This I need to figure a lot more about

  • Looking for good orchestra plugins

    Hi,
    I am looking for good classical orchestra plugins (violins cellos etc...)
    What are your suggestions ?
    thanks

    As soon as iS sees this, he'll chime in with his
    faves...;)
    My ears were burning.
    I use bits and pieces from many different libraries. For me, there's no one library that has all the right textures, articulations, etc. for any one instrument.
    I recently purchased the Kirk Hunter EXS24 library. Most of the brass, strings, and woodwinds are superb. The caveat here is that almost all samples were recorded in some kind of hall or soundstage, so as with other libraries that were sampled with ambience, it can sometimes be problematic if you're going after a dryer sound. Depending on the sound, careful tweaking of the release time can minimize that effect.
    So yes, I endorse Kirk Hunter. Bang-for-buck quotient is great ($325).
    GPO -- I use their woodwinds and harp, the occasional solo string sound, percussion (the xylophone and celeste are wonderful). But the strings are pathetic and the brass poor. Still, for $250 it's an astounding deal, and worth it for the woodwinds/harp alone. It's paid for itself 50x over.
    A favorite for strings are Sonic Implants. My copy went through a Gigasampler -->EXS conversion and I love them to death.
    EWQLSO are not a fave. I've heard good things about Gold though.
    Vienna... I've never been impressed with any of their demos. Well crafted but flat and lifeless sounding. I think the fault is with the demos and not the actual samples. Anyway, a friend recently realized a part for me using some of their specialty brass sounds and it was exactly what the doctor ordered! One day I'll invest in VSL and add it to the arsenal.

    I'm particularly interested in sites which use the thesaurus features.
    Thanks.

    There are many sites on the Internet that use interMedia Text for site search and for catalog search.

    Since updating, I've been locked out of both of my group chats, and messages in one on one chats are delayed horribly, both sending and receiving. I'll get an alert that a friend has sent me a message, open it, and nothing will be there. Messages that I send show up as pending for as long as half an hour. With group chats, I'll get alerts, but opening them will just lead me to the "recent chats" screen and the chat in question won't be there. There's nothing wrong with my internet/data connection, and all my other internet based apps work fine. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling Skype and restarting my phone, but the problem persists.

    the Wifi storage options are interesting but it seems they only allow to read files from the device on the iPad but not transfer files to the storage device via WiFi.
    I'm looking for a possibility to use the iPad for photography while traveling, without the access to a computer.
    Shooting photo's in RAW format crates pretty big files that will fill up the iPad's memory pretty fast if you shoot a lot during a (let's say) month long trip.
    my idea was to use load the photo's to the iPad so i could view them and sort out any bad ones. then copy them over to the storage device so i can continue using my CF cards for shooting. I have an image thank for copying the photo's directly to the HDD but it would be so sweet to be able to check them on the iPad before hand.
    any suggestions?

    Check out pogo plug device, it allows you to upload camera roll via wifi.

    I cannot update the iphoto ap on my mac os x because it looks for the ID I used when buying it and I forget the password to that email.
    The emails is obsolete so I cannot get the password from the service provider.
    I have another Apple ID and password which I use - but it won't let me update the iPhoto I bought with THIS cMac

    Content and Apple IDs -
    Content is forever tied to the Apple ID that bought it. Apple does not transfer content from one Apple ID to another. Apple does not merge Apple IDs. You will never be able to access your content bought with one Apple ID with a new Apple ID.

  • Looking for a easy app to use to communicate between office and our shop

    iso of an app for use between my office and backroom where parts are ordered. a time clock to click in and out while pulling order would be great.

    Sundarajan,
    generally speaking you use Forms Modules to split applications according to their logical role in an application. If for example you have a complex merchendise management application built in Forms and you use the buttons to navigate from the "product logistics" component of your application to the "pricings and advertising" component, then - because these parts are not related in business - splitting this up into modules is a good idea.
    If it is a smaller functionality that you gain from the two buttons, then using Windows or Canvases is a good idea to use. You can hide Windows and Canvases allowing you to either use a new "frame" or the same but with different content. So if the navigation you perform belongs to the same logical business process then don't use different modules. Otherwise use diefferent Forms modules.

  • Looking for good headphones...

    OK, I'm looking for a new pair of good headphones. For a few years, I've used Sony's. I like them, but I have one problem: durability. All of them have gone dead in a year or two. To be honest, I may be considered to be abusing them - They've all been earbuds, and I have a tendency to just dump them in my pocket. I bought a pair of $50 ones at the store about six months ago, and they work fine, but I've just noticed that the wire is exposed in one area, which generally means that they're gonna die soon. A case came with them, that was good, but it broke after a month or so.
    I guess what I'm looking for is this:
    - A pair of earbuds
    - Good sound quality (doesn't have to be noise reduction, in fact, I might prefer they weren't, because I generally need to be able to hear what's going on around me)
    - durability
    - different size 'buds' (My ears are pretty small; the normal ones that came with the iPod were too big, they won't stay in, and all other one-size-fits-all type buds pose the same problem)
    - $100 or less
    - a durable, easy to use case (that I won't just ditch because there's too much work getting them in and out)
    I was looking around and found that I really like the Panasonic RP-HJE70-S, they're around $100 and come with a case. They seem to be good, and the few reviews I've found like them. But they're fairly new, and there isn't much word out there yet. I also wanted to get some opinions first.
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    I splurged recently on a pair of Audio Technica ATH M50's which were very expensive.
    They sound wonderful and are 8 out of 10 comfortable when using them for hours. They're really good for tracking but I have found them to be highly inaccurate/coloured for mixing.
    I don't know if this is important to you, but I've been unpleasantly surprised that most headphones seem to have the cable hard wired to the enclosure.
    My fantastic Beyer Dynamic DT 150's (which are now 20 years old but not so good for tracking or mixing) have a hard plastic tab at the end of the cable that plugs into the headphones, and this tab has several, 'male' D.I.N. like pins (except in a rectangular formation) which plug into their female counterparts in the enclosure. This means that if the cable ever breaks (which, ironically, it hasn't because it is very durable) you can just buy another one and plug it in.
    I wonder if there are other elements of design that are important to you or others.
    Let us know what you choose, and you might want to check out the other sites too, homerecording.com, macrumors.com, audiorecording - I'm sure you're familiar with a lot of these.
    Good luck

  • Making Edge content work in Internet Explorer - Still looking for the easy fix!
