Online Tuner

How to Use the Tuner When you first load the tuner page, your browser should tell you that the applet is signed by Seventh String Limited and that the signature has been verified by a trusted source (Thawte in fact). You will need to click the "Run" or "Ok" or "Trust" button to allow the tuner to run. See "Security Issues" below if you want to know why this is necessary. You need to get the signal from your instrument into the computer of course. Notes are named as, for instance, "F# 4 -3 cents". This chromatic tuner is sensitive (it can get an accurate reading from a quiet sound) and robust (when a note is being played, it is not easily distracted by extraneous sounds). If you want to tune notes which remain totally steady for a long time then you will need to uncheck the "Hum cancellation" box, to prevent such very steady notes from being ignored. If you want a tuner which plays reference notes for you to tune to, then see the Seventh String Tuning Fork. The Tuner Controls In Detail

5 Artists You Should Know In 2011 The hits just keep on coming — so much excellent music rolls out each week that it can be hard just to keep up. In 2011, Bon Iver, Wilco, Raphael Saadiq, The Decemberists, Gillian Welch, Tinariwen, Elbow, Tom Waits and Fleet Foxes all met high expectations. Shabazz Palaces, James Blake and Wild Flag dropped highly anticipated debuts that lived up to the advance buzz. Charles Bradley came out of nowhere, stripping his heart and soul bare on his debut album (No Time for Dreaming) at age 61. And legendary funk guitarist Dennis Coffey descended from cloud nine and a 20-year hiatus to lay down some wicked new original tracks. In 2011, even with more outlets than ever for discovering and sharing new music, it's nearly impossible for even the most dedicated music lover to keep up.

Cello | Luis and Clark “I have been stunned by the beauty and the carrying power of the new Luis and Clark cellos. Young people using the new instruments tell me that they find the instruments inspiring to work with. And I recommend them highly, especially as a best buy.” Robert Freeman, director, Eastman School of Music, 1972-96 president, New England Conservatory of Music, 1996-99 dean, College of Fine Arts, University of Texas at Austin,1999- The shape of the Luis & Clark cello makes it easier to play. It is played closer to the body so the bow arm does not have to be so high at the point of the A string, thus reducing one of the causes of the “sore shoulder syndrome.” Ever wondered what the inside of Deadmau5′s helmet looks like? Deadmau5′s man behind the mask Joel Zimmerman posted this picture of the inside of his latest, non-cheese-inspired mask. Take note of a few things: first, there are hundreds, maybe thousands, of little LED lights. Second, he had to label the left and right side, which is weird, because the mask has eyeholes and is open in the back, so… isn’t there only one way to put it on? Oh, and definitely check out the watermark. You’re a joker, deadmau5. Look below for a reminder of how the mask looks when he’s wearing it. Stumble it!
