There are times when I need to de-tune my guitar down to Q and I had no tuner handy. Thanks to Gibson for their iPhone App that includes tuner and metronome.

Partial description:

FEATURES:

  • A professional quality Chromatic Tuner that will allow you to tune any instrument using the iPhone microphone (or iPod Touch with microphone attachment)
  • Alternate Tuning settings so you can quickly and easily tune your guitar to various alternate tunings, including Open G, Low C, Drop D, Eb and others.
  • A Standard Mode Tuner that allows you to tune each string to a sample tone
  • An accurate Metronome with multiple time signatures, visual and audio options, and a set-your-own tempo tap pad
  • A Chord Library with a sample of the essential chords for every player beginner to advanced

Did I forget to mention that it’s free?

Still, there’s no instruction to downtune to Q.
