Frequently Asked Questions

A physical tuning fork vibrates at a precise fixed frequency when struck. This tool simulates that by playing a pure sine wave at the selected pitch with a 3-second exponential decay, mimicking how a real fork's sound fades after being struck.

A4 = 440 Hz was internationally standardized in 1955. Before this, A4 ranged from 415 Hz to 466 Hz across different ensembles. Today, some orchestras use 442 Hz or 443 Hz for a slightly brighter sound.

For standard guitar tuning, use octave 4 for A (440 Hz), octave 3 for D (146.83 Hz) and G (196 Hz), octave 4 for B (246.94 Hz), and octave 4 for E (329.63 Hz). The low E string is E2 (82.41 Hz).
