Did you see the note under the subject, Cool free tuning app?

Seems to be a tone generator that is fully accessible.

Hi,

The talking tuner will tell you the note and how many cents you are sharp or
flat and tell you when you are dead on.  I, like you would much prefer a
generated tone so you could 0-beat the 2 frequencies  which would be much
faster but the cents flat or sharp approach probably is more useful for the
average user for whom it works well.  I haven't found a tone generator yet
for the IPhone.

By the way, I tried getting the ClearTune but it doesn't work for a blind
person.  Can't tell you what it uses because it doesn't talk.  I suppose it
works with a sine wave or something like that.  I still believe that, for
the piano, you are better off using your intervals to set your tempered
scale.  I make life a little easier by using a 4 note stand alone tone
generator which I purchased several years ago.  It makes it faster than a
single tuning fork.  Before that, I used two tuning forks, an A and a C and
that gave me a very good starting point.       

If you ever find a tone generator for the IPhone, please let us know.

Hi Gang:

I am looking for a tuning app that will give audio tones.  I thought that
the talking tuner does that, but I guess not.

Thanks all over the place.
