KookYar Santur Tuner

KookYar Santur is a tuner made for the Persian santur. Pick a dastgah, choose a bridge, play the string and the needle shows how far you are from the note, including sori and koron quarter-tones. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose a tuning from Tunings or Books, or make your own. 2. Select the string group (yellow, white or behind the bridge) and tap a bridge. 3. Play the string and adjust it until the needle sits in the green zone. FEATURES • Bridge-by-bridge tuning: bridges 1 to 9, yellow (bass) and white strings, and the notes behind the bridges • Ready-made tunings for every dastgah: – Rast kook: Shur, Shur (Payvar), Homayun, Bayat Esfahan, Mahur / Rast Panjgah, Segah, Nava, Chahargah – Chap kook: Shur-Re, Homayun, Esfahan, Mahur, Segah and Chahargah (left) – Combined tunings: Fa minor, Do minor, Do major • Tunings from well-known santur books (Payvar, Kamkar, Meshkatian and more) • Custom tunings: set every bridge yourself and save your own tunings • Temperament editor to fine-tune each quarter-tone in cents • Supports santurs in G, A, B, C, E and F, with an option to tune the first yellow bridge to E • Tune at concert pitch, or a quarter-tone, semitone or whole tone lower • Auto string detection: the tuner follows whichever string you play • Needle gauge with a ±100 cent scale and a clear green in-tune zone • Reference tone: hear the target note for the selected string • Live level meter, so you can see the microphone hears your instrument • Adjustable reference pitch (A4 = 410 to 450 Hz) and microphone sensitivity • Persian note names (Do, Re, Mi…) with sori and koron quarter-tones • English and Persian interface.
