tuningsextensions

TuningExtensions is a collection of modular tools designed to provide precise tuning control for digital audio workstations, hardware synthesizers, and instrument firmware. The package offers algorithms for pitch detection, frequency correction, and harmonic alignment, allowing users to achieve accurate intonation across a wide range of musical contexts. Each module can be applied individually or combined into a custom tuning chain, giving composers, engineers, and instrument makers flexibility without the need to write code from scratch.

Core features of TuningExtensions include a real‑time auto‑tune engine that supports microtuning systems, a spectral analysis renderer for visualizing overtone content, and an adjustable equal‑izer that can compensate for instrument resonances. The library also contains a suite of pitch‑slope correction routines that help maintain consistent intonation when transposing instruments or altering key signatures.

The project was first released in 2018 by the Open Audio Labs community. Since its inception it has grown through contributions from developers worldwide, adding support for Pro Tools, Ableton Live, and VST3 host environments. Integration is straightforward: the framework follows the standard plugin interface of the host, and developers can hook into its API to embed tuning functionality into custom firmware or production software.

Users benefit from a permissive open‑source license that encourages commercial and educational use. Documentation is provided through a series of example projects and an API reference guide, while the active community forum offers forums for troubleshooting, feature requests, and user‑generated tuning presets.
