Doesnt work well with sax - possibly just needs a tweak from the developers
Ive been using the PolyTune pedals since they came out. They track guitar fast and make tuning on stage a breeze. For many years Ive also been using other guitar pedals, like the Boss TU-12 (which has a microphone), to tune saxophone and flute. So I thought this app would be good to use for my wind students. But it doesnt track wind instruments very well. Maybe its expecting the instrument to be plugged in (maybe with an iRig interface?), and therefore the sensitivity is too low for just pointing a sound at the iPhone or iPad. In any case, the simple "eTuner" app does the job much better, with no fooling around trying to get closer to the IOS device. I hope TC Electronic takes a look at the various ways people might want to use this app, and make some changes to it. On the whole, their products are some of the best.
