OSXI  This last guy who trashed the program and using a Mac onstage and for guitar stuff must be a frustrated failure who's made at the world. Ignore the goof!

ANONYMOUS  Who's going to use a Mac program for tuning a guitar?! I don't care how much it costs, it's overpriced - unless you're in the habit of taking a laptop to a gig, this is practically useless.

If you're jamming to iTunes, then the only way to ensure you're in tune is to tune to the song. If you want to make sure your guitar is at concert pitch, then use a tuning fork. Electronic tuners make lazy musicians! Your fancypants program ain't gonna save you when you collide with a bass player...

One of the most hilarious sights (and sounds) is the guitarist who doesn't even know he's out of tune! And still he goes on! Squealing like a stuck pig. Then someone tells him - and he goes running for his tuner. Fifteen minutes later, we're rolling again! What a star! What a show!

Perfect pitch isn't necessary to tune properly.

Features: it gets in the way of learning your instrument.

Ease of use: What could be easier than listening and twisting a machine head?

Value: A gadget to do something anyone can do for free.

Stability: Whoops! Powerbook goes stagediving again!

What a joke!

FRUSTRATED GUITARIST  Have to admit that I thought mactd was just being a cheapskate. I'm sorry mactd, you are right - the nagging makes it impossible to seriously evaluate whether or not to purchase this which after all is surely the point of a demo.

MACTD  This thing nags you to death, (every 10 or 15 seconds?)... Not only is that annoying as hell, but Perfect Pitch is much better, and FREE!

It works like it's supposed to, but the nags didn't do anything but piss me off... I'll never try another version of this software again...
