I have played with it for a few minutes with dolphinuk supernova in the 
virtual cursor mode and it seems to be accessible. of course when needed i 
use the tuning unit which i have.  i'll be happy to help in tuning matters.
kind regards:

it has audio for the tones being tuned, but no way of reading the trace,
but
very bold display black and white. even with virtually no sight in one
non
artificial eye i can use it.  haven't tried the latest software with a
screen reader, but i think the screen display graphic could be trained.

So does this work with a normal audio input , and how does one tell if

the dots are moving with a screen reader??

I HAVE used a free download piece of software which is the same format

as a very expensive german piano tuning machine which i use and
encouraged my
piano tuning students to buy when i was a lecturer in that field.  it
has a free version.  my son has downloaded it to his pda and is able
to use it for
tuning pianos.  it is called tunelab.  i'm not sure of the url. but i
can
get it from my son if you would like.  it uses a dotted line like a
strobe.
when it moves right the note is sharp, and when left the note is flat.
the
note is perfectly in tune when the dots are stationary.  19 different
temperaments, stretching etc.
kind regards:
harry

Subject: Accessible Tuners

Hi everyone,
I'm throwing this question out there.
Does anyone know if there are any accessible tuners out there used for

helping to tune guitars?  I'm playing a lot more these days and it
would be nice to have one of those electronic tuner that will tell me
if each string
is in tune.
I know for the regular ones, they have some sort of needle that moves
if
one
is sharp or flat.
I just didn't know if anyone knew of a good one that could be used by
a
blind person.
If not, well...I guess it's time to start working on one.  LOL Jim PS.
I
guess this ruins the old stereotype that all blind people have perfect
pitch, eh?
