Hi!

You should check out
http://linux-sound.org/

more specifically

http://linux-sound.org/guitar.html

Unfortunately, I don't believe there are any ebuilds in portage for these yet.

Hi,

I also would like to know if anyone has any guitar tuner's working, specifically one that supports alsa. I think I managed to compile two different tuner's, but I couldn't use them because they wanted OSS.

Steve

I use kguitune, you can get the source from

http://home.planet.nl/~lamer024/k3guitune.html

if you want applications that use oss modules then you need to enable oss in your /etc/modules.d/alsa

Code:
# ALSA portion
alias char-major-116 snd
# OSS/Free portion
alias char-major-14 soundcore


and here....

Code:
##  ALSA portion
## alias snd-card-0 snd-interwave
## alias snd-card-1 snd-ens1371
alias snd-card-0 snd-emu10k1
alias snd-card-1 snd-virmidi
##  OSS/Free portion
alias sound-slot-0 snd-card-0
## alias sound-slot-1 snd-card-1

# OSS/Free portion - card #1
alias sound-service-0-0 snd-mixer-oss
alias sound-service-0-1 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-3 snd-pcm-oss
alias sound-service-0-8 snd-seq-oss
alias sound-service-0-12 snd-pcm-oss
##  OSS/Free portion - card #2
## alias sound-service-1-0 snd-mixer-oss
## alias sound-service-1-3 snd-pcm-oss
## alias sound-service-1-12 snd-pcm-oss

alias /dev/mixer snd-mixer-oss
alias /dev/dsp snd-pcm-oss
alias /dev/midi snd-seq-oss


I am obviously using a soundblaster but other than the sound card yours should be similar

then make shure to turn on your line in in alsamixergui and then you should be able to hear your guitar through your speakers.

Haha, I'm impressed.
My ear improved while I didn't having a tuner for a while, but it sure isn't that good. I still need a tuner to get it just right.

Hehehe :)
I must admit that playing the violin for 10 years and then switching over to guitar, helped alot :) .. I was in something called Suzuki courses. There, I learned to play music by ear, not notes. :)
Yes, I know I'm a cheater ;P
But that's ok. My motto is Win if you can, lose if you must, but always cheat :lol:

imvho the best way to tune instruments is to use xmms` tone generator. google for each strings` frequencies and tune your gitar manually.

The creator of creox has alsa made a nice tuner. It can be found here.
