Ching Machine vs Tuner
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
Ching Machine
Automatic "ching" for practicing Thai music. * Sampled ching and glong sounds from real instruments. * Tempo selection. * Start playing with "chup chup" (the initial double-strike of the ching cymbals.) * Create your own drum patterns. I hope you enjoy this program! Please note that while this app contains both Thai and English translations and instructions for the most complicated functions, the majority of the user interface has been deliberately kept in Thai with the aim of encouraging interest in Thai script and the Thai language, as well as Thai music. I hope that the app also invites you, then, to be curious, push buttons, learn and explore, and have fun!
Tuner
Accordion tuner with scope, spectrum and strobe or staff. Can show up to eight different notes or reeds concurrently. In portrait the app shows a scope with the input signal, a spectrum showing the processed signal, the main display with the note value, cents error, frequency error etc, a strobe or staff display and a meter display showing the cents error. In landscape the app shows just the main display or staff and the meter. There is a signal indicator in the action bar which is useful in landscape mode. * 32 temperaments including Equal, Just, Pythagorean, Meantone * Filter options, including low pass, fundamental, note and octave filter * Optional strobe or musical staff display * Custom temperaments option * Transposition option * Solfège (DoRéMi) option
