Show HN: Remotely use my guitar tuner
- eranation - 33254 sekunder sedanLinking it here since it's easy to miss. It seems he is using the popularity of this to help a friend recovering from brain surgery, I think this makes this project even more awesome in my book.

You can use real pedals over the internet
there's a german blog post about this: https://www.amazona.de/thomann-stompenberg-fx/
- TrackerFF - 44786 sekunder sedanThomann had (still have?) this thing called "stompenberg", where they put up some mechanical switching system so that you could play audio files through the actual pedals in the system, and turn on the knobs / parameters.
In the recent years some smaller businesses have started to offer outboard gear in this way. You upload some stem, and can process it through their hardware remotely, and get back the results.
- copperx - 44308 sekunder sedanThis is awesome, and, at the same time, hilarious. The BOSS tuner is the laggiest thing ever, and we're adding network latency to it!
Maybe we all can pitch in for a Turbo Tuner. Or some vintage mechanical strobe tuner for hipster points!
- dbdr - 21060 sekunder sedanOn Firefox/Linux, after allowing mic access, I get a "Failed to access microphone" above the button, and in the javascript console:
[ws] Microphone error: DOMException: AudioContext.createMediaStreamSource: Connecting AudioNodes from AudioContexts with different sample-rate is currently not supported.
- locusofself - 23088 sekunder sedanI love it.
But in all seriousness, if you are looking for a good guitar tuner, a lot of the ones on the market are actually not very good.
I highly recommend TC Electronic for clip-on tuner, or Sonic Research or Peterson for pedal tuners.

- hunter2_ - 35284 sekunder sedanOn my Pixel 10 using Chrome, it says "Mic needed - refresh to allow" but refreshing doesn't change anything. It's possible that I did something years ago to prevent whatever permission popup might normally be offered?
