This is probably the best software tuner available - BUT - it has not been updated for Windows since...2008???
With a 64-bit and high-resolution graphics update for Windows, this would be THE ONE to get!!
I am hoping that Peterson hooks up with another softwware company writing code (Brainworx?, PSP?, Boz Labs?, Kazrog?, Korneff Audio?) that
know how to do Hi-Rez graphics right, and finally get this tuner going again!!

Great possibilities, precise and professional tool. Horrible user interface and old low resolution graphics.

The most friendly and powerful tuning software. I use it in my studio with all my instruments, all kinds, not just guitars, and also in my lutherie workshop for analyzing tops. Brilliant!!! Unique!!

This would be a five start project if they would only build the VST capability into the software, better yet update to VST3.
That said, I could not live without it! It is accurate, it is responsive, it is flexible, and it is reliable, which is all I ask for in a tuner.
I've been using strobe tuners since I picked up a used Conn strobe tuner a LONG time ago. I later purchased the original Strobostomp (you know, the Blue, rather strangely shaped version) not long after they were introduced, and it has lived on my pedal board ever since. For studio use I picked up StroboSoft, and I have never been disappointed with either one.
I will eventually upgrade the pedal to something that takes up less space (and has a few new features), not sure when.
The products are fantastic, the company is fantastic!

Bought this years ago and still waiting for the DAW version. Lame, lame, so very lame.

64Bit version of this after 5 years of waiting!
It works... but I can't adjust which inputs to use. I can only use it via a microphone on the computer... really?
Hey! What's another 5 years wait, maybe we'll get to choose the input from an interface to the tuner. Oh and maybe an update on the UI? I can only wait!!
Peterson rocks otherwise.
My first use of a strobe tuner was the Model 700 and it was so great after using Korg and other junky wobbly needle tuners. I went straight to the strobostomp and finally StroboClip-HD.
So hopefully this is the only product that got overlooked. Thanks for all the great work otherwise!

This works great and even catches fast transients like a banjo uke with a 12" scale, and a xylophone. I wish the spectral analyzer screen captured the frequency response of a sound and then froze, so you could actually look at it closely. Also wish the spectral analyzer screen was larger. But this software works for me. All the negative reviews are from Apple people or people who want to embed this software. I just want to tune instruments in real time. I use a Shure M57 mic, a Scarlett 2i2 USB audio interface, and a Windows PC. Install was easy.

I've always used only the Peterson tuner, but the desktop software is very slow to respond. And you can't just load it from Pro Tools, and you have to install it every time you use it as a standalone.
