Timple tuner
A free timple tuner in your phone's browser: the Canarian timple's five strings, G C E A D with the E as the lowest, with a needle and the cents. Nothing uploaded.
Five strings, and the middle one is the lowest. Mika expects that and tunes the E down.The microphone closes when you stop, when all is in tune, or after half a minute of quiet. Nothing is recorded.
G4✓
Tap start. Play the G string and let it ring. Without the microphone, tap a note above to hear it.

Timple tuning: string by string
Timple tuning, Standard (G C E A D): G4 C5 E4 A4 D5. The timple is the Canary Islands' small five-string guitar with a rounded back. Its tuning, G C E A D from the fifth string to the first, looks like a ukulele's with a D added, but the order is unusual: the third string, E, is the lowest and thickest note of the five, with the G and the C both above it.
Tuners that assume the strings rise from G to D will pull the E up an octave, and a nylon E tuned an octave high breaks; tune it down to the E above middle C. Some older players raise the third string a semitone to F, G C F A D; that is the second switch.
The notes you tuned go into Brumm as a short melody over a beat.
Audio: your microphone, on only after you tap. The sound is analysed in this tab and never sent. Nothing about the audio reaches the visit count.
