How this tuning was derived

Standard Violin Tuning (GDAE)

Standard tuning for a 4-string violin is G3-D4-A4-E5, tuned in perfect fifths. This offers a highly resonant and symmetrical scale structure, allowing violinists to shift positions smoothly while maintaining rich tonal projection.

Why a strobe beats a needle

A needle answers "what is the average pitch right now?" A multi-harmonic strobe adds an extra layer to the tuning visualization by showing several harmonics at once, so you can fine-tune more confidently to fractions of a cent.
