Tune your dombra fast and precisely!
A simple but powerful tuner will help you with that! You will be able not only to listen to the realistic sound of each tuning dombra string but also to check the accuracy of the stringing and fine-tune it with the chromatic tuner in the middle of the application window!
To start the tuning process, choose the right tone from the 11 available ones.
Two buttons in the lower part of the application window match two strings of the dombra. Each of them will reproduce the sound of an ideally tuned string of the instrument.
If you want to simplify the process, use the Repeat mode. This mode will help you tune the dombra in your hands.
Chromatic tuner in the middle of the application window will automatically check how good each string you are working with is tuned. You can also use it for an accurate tuning of dombra strings. If the string is perfectly tuned, the chromatic tuner will blink with green light. If you see red light blinking, you should continue tuning. The application will tell you what to do with the string: if you see red arrow pointing to the right, the string is badly stretched. If the red arrow points to the left, it means the string is overstretched. Continue tuning until the tuner blinks with green light, then go to the next string. Follow the steps until your dombra is perfectly tuned. Now you can enjoy playing your dombra!
