    The Audio Narrowband Filter that several of you kindly helped me test during development is now released for sale in the Google Play Store (Android only). Here is the link if you are interested:

    Audio Narrowband Filter - Apps on Google Play
    Everyone This app implements a audio filter around any selected pitch. The sound from the microphone is filtered and sent to a headset, which is required for the app to run.
    View this on Google >


    This app is simply a filter you can set at the desired coincident partial to help in training for hearing beats.

    I was among the testers. It's a very brilliant app and well worth the small payment for it because it's effective not just for training. It's a microscope into the sound and, like tune-lab, has a frequency graph under the note-choice. One can zoom up to the scale note around which one can expect a harmonic and in the bass really identifies and explosively illustrates how really inharmonic the upper partials of bass strings can be, and potentially helps one to match them up with a partial of another tuning note according to one's style of tuning. 

    Likewise with a difficult treble (particularly with false beats) one's putting the notes under an aural and visual microscope using both senses to get the best out of something really difficult.

    For those who habitually tune by machine, it enables one to listen better to what the instrument wants to do, and thereby to use the machine better. Were I to be tuning standard equal temperament or P12 it would persuade me to tune more by ear, but what I'm doing specifically with manipulation of temperament requires an ETD although it might help in due course to enable reliable results by ear. Nevertheless, for tidying up treble in particular and finding best unisons on false notes, it's a tool potentially supreme for all and not merely those of us on a learning curve and well worth the cost of two espressos to buy.

    Best wishes

    This looks interesting. Do you have a video of what it's doing? Or, do you have a limited function or limited number of days trial version that we can check out to see what exactly it's doing and how it works before purchase?

    I plan on making a video eventually, but it is not a real high priority right now.  It is just a filter that suppresses (to some extent) every pitch except the selected one.  And it only costs $6.
