Feature Request: Could you also add a "Tune down 1/2 step" since a lot of metal songs are tuned that way.

Other than that, it managed to keep up with Yngwie, so it does seem to work well.

hi ksaj, frettr has that feature- it's just denoted as "tune up 1/2 step" because the chords are tuned up in the recognition process. I'll change it to "tune down 1/2 step" though because I see how it's confusing. I'm a big SRV and Hendrix guy, so I couldn't forget to add this in development though. thx for the feedback! -grudnyai22
It should be called "transpose up 1/2 step". E.g. if the song has an Eb m chord that you'd like to play using an Em fingering on your detuned instrument, the notation needs to be transposed up 1/2 step.
this is great advice- changed it again this morning! -grudnyai22
