SOFTWARE
AP Tuner
A great free software tuner! This one works better than most hardware tuners that you buy at a music store.
It's shareware, but it's not disabled in any way. Excellent for tuning sitars, tablas and as a
pitch pipe for voice.
BestPractice
- A great little practice tool that lets you slow down, loop, and change the pitch of any wave file or CD
recording. It also removes vocals from recordings so that you can hear the instrumental parts better.
Visual Analyser
- A free, software Oscilloscope, Spectrum Analyzer with amplitude and phase display, Wave-form generator,
Frequency meter, Volt meter, and more.
Audacity
Audacity is free, open source software for recording and editing sounds. It does multi track recording, and
it's great for putting parts together because you can edit the sounds visually. You can also use it to slow
down and change the pitch of recordings, so that they're easier to learn. It's one of the best learning
tools available, and it's powerful enough to create commercial recordings - even full length albums.
It's a very small download, and it runs on virtually any computer platform.
