TapNTune brings to your desktop something that was until now only available in hardware form: namely, a combination tuner and metronome that runs from a single window. TapNTune's easy-to-use interface includes the best features of both a metronome and a tuner, but feature bloating is avoided in favor of simplicity. Nonetheless, TapNTune possesses a powerful feature set.

Even if it has some good features, I must say that for this matter "Metronome 1.8.2a" (as for the present version) is more reliable (but it doesn't start directly when you press the space bar, which TapNTune does, and that could be an issue in some situation).
Apart from that, it's fully featured as a metronome.
About the tuner, I'd say that using the integrated mic of my iMac G5 is useless, just like any other competitors I've tried: the needle wriggles in a spastic way. (I suppose it's the mic that gets various rumours and can't deliver an analysable sound)
I haven't tried it with other mics.

As as a guitar mechanic, I now have a tool far better than a pitch pipe or tuning fork. As a musician, I now have also a metronome to help with the most troublesome issue for any solo performer -- timing and tempo. For me, TapNTune would be greater still it you added just one more metronome sound that was deep bass, like the heartbeat of a blue whale or the sound of Zakir Hussein's left hand on the bayan. Just a pulse that the musician could hear/feel in the headphones as he is playing. For this already excellent, simple tool, thank you.
