  3. Activate the tuner and pluck each string of your ukulele individually. Watch the indications on the tuner; it will show the closest note to the one you're playing and indicate if the string needs to be tuned higher ("tune up") or lower ("tune down").
  4. Tune your ukulele's pegs while checking the online tuner's display until it confirms each string is perfectly in tune. Note that the note above the tuner meter will turn green when you've hit the right pitch.

How do I tune up/down a ukulele string?

To tune a string of a Ukulele, identify the corresponding tuning peg on your ukulele. You may refer to our picture above. Pluck the string, then hold the peg and turn it to alter its pitch. If the tuner suggests tuning up for a higher pitch, turn the peg counter-clockwise. If it needs to be lower, turn it clockwise. Proceed carefully, adjusting in small increments and frequently checking the tuner to avoid over-tuning and potentially snapping the string. Always use a reliable tuner, like our standard online ukulele tuner on OnlineTuner.org, to verify that you have reached the precise pitch before moving on to the next string.

Understand our online ukulele tuner's settings

The present online ukulele tuner, provided to you by OnlineTuner.org, is designed to suit novice as well as experimented musician's needs. It offers an accurate, robust and versatile ukulele tuning experience that can be customized to a user's specific requirements. You can access each of these settings directly on our online ukulele tuner, or by clicking on ā€œAdvanced settingsā€.

Adjust the A4 frequency of our online ukulele tuner

One of the most crucial settings to consider when using our online ukulele tuner is the adjustable frequency of the A4 note. This setting serves as the foundational pitch from which all other notes are calculated. While the default is often set to the international standard of A=440 Hz, many musicians have strong preferences for alternative frequencies such as A=432 Hz or A=442 Hz. The ability to adjust this foundational pitch makes our online ukulele tuner flexible enough to accommodate musicians who play in various tuning systems, whether they be historical temperaments - a lower A4 frequency was more popular in the past - or modern experimental tunings.

Set the sensitivity of our online ukulele tuner

Another pivotal feature of our online ukulele tuner is the sensitivity setting, which can be altered to suit the specific environment or instrument in use. You can adjut the sensitivity of our online ukulele tuner through the algorithm's probability threshold. By adjusting this, users can control how many notes the tuner will detect and how accurately it will do so. For musicians who require ultra-precise tuning, or that are using specific sound effects on their ukulele, this setting can be extremely helpful.

Using our online ukulele tuner in challenging environments

Further, the noise gate setting of our online ukulele tuner stands as a strong ally for those tuning in acoustically challenging environments. Whether you're in a room with an air conditioner humming in the background or in a rehearsal space with other musicians, the noise gate allows you to set a volume threshold below which sounds will be ignored by our online ukulele tuner tuner. This ensures that only the sound of your ukulele is picked up and analyzed, increasing the tunerā€™s accuracy.

Meter tuner vs Slider tuner

This last setting is just a matter of taste, but you can choose whether you prefer to use our Meter tuner or rather our Slider tuner. To alternate between one and the other, just click on the "Display the slider tuner" switch of our online ukulele tuner.
