Share Custom Tunings with Students and Bandmates

A tuning is more useful when everyone can use the same one. StroboPro lets you create or generate a custom tuning, check it on a real instrument, save it, and share it with the people who need it.

Save the tuning, then share it with a student, bandmate, or collaborator.

One tuning for the whole group

Instead of sending a list of notes in a chat message, prepare the tuning once in StroboPro and share it. Students, bandmates, and collaborators can open the same tuning and work from the same note layout.

This is useful for alternate guitar tunings, extended-range bass, classroom exercises, new compositions, and instruments with unusual note arrangements.

How tuning sharing works

  1. Choose or create: Start from a preset, edit an existing tuning, or ask AI to generate a starting point.
  2. Copy from the instrument: Tap Listen to note, play or strum the note, and copy the detected pitch into the tuning.
  3. Review: Rename the tuning and check each note in the editor.
  4. Save and share: Save the tuning to your account and send it to your class, band, or collaborator.
  5. Open and tune: The recipient opens the shared tuning and uses StroboPro to tune.

Useful sharing examples

Music lessons

A teacher can send one DADGAD or open G tuning to every student before class. The assignment is concrete and every student sees the same notes.

Band rehearsals

Share a song-specific tuning with the band so guitar, bass, and other instruments can prepare before rehearsal.

Instrument building

Save the tuning for a custom instrument and send it to the owner, technician, or collaborator.

Composition

Share an experimental tuning with performers while keeping the note names and pitches together.

Share tunings without losing the details

A plain text list can omit the instrument, string order, note spelling, or octave. A shared StroboPro tuning keeps the useful structure together so the recipient can start from the same definition.
