I play as much lap steel as I do Hendrix and SRV, so I’m a 50-50 mix between sharps and flats
It's already in there on the config page.it's a bit off topic, but again about tuning;
maybe there could be an option for tuning instead A= 440 Hz as standard frequency,
there could be an option A=432 Hz as an alternative frequency and of course the other notes in relation to that
Which is in fact the natural tuning for A, and altered by around 1922
However just my 2 cents, not a big deal but interesting
i voted mixed.
This!tempered tunings? Buzz Feiten? Alternate tunings?
I don't think it is that piano always uses Eb instead of D#. It depends which key you are in.For all those wondering 'why d# is not quite Eb', it is the same note, however theory dictates which it should be, which is why some pianists may get confused with us saying d#, because it is theoretically an Eb.
I personally prefer it as the theory has it, as it makes the most sense, but I get the 'guitar player' point of view too. So maybe an option would be best.
I now understand what the confusion is. If I understand correctly it's when people are tuning down a half-step and the strings read Eb, Ab, C#, ... that is confusing.
What I've done for the next firmware update, instead, is add a Downtune control. When Downtune is set to, say, 1 semitone, the tuner will read one semitone higher than the actual pitch so tuning to Eb standard the tuner will read E, A, D, ...
Also, when using Downtune the Pitch block and any other blocks that rely on pitch will be offset by the number of semitones.
Wooo... Thank you so much, I'm not English, I'm French, so I don't speak your language easily, but it's exactly what I wanted to say in the post I've created yersterday "Questions about the tuner".I now understand what the confusion is.

you can do either one.Wait, so if I have a downtuned guitar and a standard guitar, the standard is going to have to be tuned sharp (on the display) or I have to change the setting when switching?
Edit: is this per preset?

You don't need to change it. But if you do, the display with show the Eb guitar as E and any scales will shift. If you don't need that, just leave it as is.I'm in the same boat. I gig with 3 guitars tuned to E and one tuned to Eb. I tend to use the Axe-Fx display for tuning on stage because I prefer it over the one on the FC-6. Will I need to change the Downtune control when doing a quick tuning check/fix on the Eb guitar between songs?
