Your task is to tune all the violin strings to the right notes. The notes for each string are shown in the note names under the tuner. You can click any of the note names to hear what the end result should sound like.
____ The best is to bow while you turn the fine tuner, but this might be difficult in the beginning. As a beginner violinist you might be going back and forth bowing checking the tuner.
I highly recommend playing the note over-plucking because when plucking, the pitch changes slightly, and therefore the tuner might not get an accurate read on the pitch (and your violin might not be tuned correctly!). Playing the note helps your tuner get a more accurate read on the pitch.
My free online violin tuner on top of this page is the only tuner in which you can set the Hertz to all mentioned numbers. Be a little careful when adjusting your modern violin to other tunings than 440-444 Hertz as your strings are made for that tension and might not do well with 432 or 466. Especially higher tension could cause your string to snap. Lower tension could make the string too loose to play on.
There are two reasons the bridge may collapse when tuning: the strings are much too high (therefore putting too much pressure on the bridge) or the strings are much too low (thus not putting enough pressure on the bridge). Turning the pegs and/or fine tuners in small increments and checking the tuning often will strongly decrease the likelihood of this happening.
The violin is tuned in fifths, meaning that each string is a perfect fifth away from the other. Starting on A, if you count up a fifth you get E (A B C D E), and if you count down a fifth you get D (A G F E D).How to tune your violin with the fine tunersThe fine tuners are just that- FINE tuners! Meaning that they can adjust the pitch of your string in very small increments, which makes violin tuning much easier. I recommend sticking mostly to the fine tuners if you are a beginner player.
Place your violin on your shoulder like you normally would when playing, and place your bow on the desired string. Move your left hand underneath your bow and adjust your fine tuners with your thumb and index fingers.
Geared pegs are a newer innovation for tuning violins. They feature gears on the body of the peg that allow for much greater control than traditional pegs. Not only do geared pegs improve accuracy when tuning, but they also help players with limited strength and mobility tune more easily. You should consider geared pegs if you like the ease of tuning with the fine tuners, but do not like their effects on the sound.
To use peg soap turn your violin peg downwards so that it begins to come out of the pegbox. Rub a thin layer of the peg soap around the part of the peg that is usually inside the pegbox. Only a thin layer is necessary; too much could actually cause your pegs to slip (and you just learned how to STOP that from happening!). Then, turn your peg back upwards and tune your violin. Your peg should turn much easier.
A-440 is the pitch that most violin A strings are tuned to. A-440 means this pitch has 440 hertz vibration cycles per second (hertz measures frequency). Listen to a tuning fork A-440. Why 440? In an effort to standardize tuning, in the 1930s, many countries agreed A should be 440, and in the 1950s, the International Organization for Standardization selected A at 440 hertz as the standard tuning frequency (confirmed in 2017). Some orchestras still prefer to tune to a higher A (e.g. the New York Philharmonic tunes to A-442).
Beginning violinists often have fine tuners on all four strings to help them easily make small adjustments to the pitch. You can even buy violin tailpieces with integrated fine tuners. Fine tuners can also be very helpful for those who use all metal strings. Most violins do have a fine tuner on their thin metal E string.
Most violins have an E fine tuner because E is the thinnest string and is more challenging to precisely tune using just the peg (turn the peg too much, and the thin metal string could break). Some violinists feel more than one fine tuner affects the sound of their instrument, but it's a personal preference, so decide what works best for you!
Many advanced violinists use double stops when tuning. Once your A string is in tune, learning how to use double stops to tune the rest of your strings in perfect fifths to the A is an important skill to acquire. A double stop means playing notes on two strings at the same time. Try it! After tuning your A string, listen very carefully for the interval of a perfect fifth and adjust your pegs or fine tuners as needed as you play double stops with the D and A string, G and D string, and A and E string.
You can use a tuner for all musical instruments. Below is a list of common instruments and their tuning. The notes are written from lowest to highest, except for the ukulele and banjo that don't have strings ordered by pitch.
I prefer strobe tuners which show the harmonics. I use one for iOS and I am fairly sure it is available for Android, but it does cost $10. It is rated as one of the most accurate and highest satisfaction ratings. I am very happy with it, and I own a lot of tuners I have tried for my iPad and iPhone. I can not speak to the quality for Android.

But having programmed an Android tuner myself, I don't think that's actually the root cause of the lag - it's the length of the Fourier transform you have to use to have at least some reasonable precision for a chromatic tuner; in my testing some 0.3 - 0.4 s will give you results you can work with & present with a good confidence. But if you do strobe correctly, you don't have to wait nearly at all, you can present the results in a fraction of that, and give a much better precision at the same time.
I tried to post a link to my tuner here, but I guess it was deleted as spam - I don't see it here, and I apologize. But please let me at least mention it still - I have a pretty good strobe tuner there, or at least it works for my tuning needs really well :-)

elise stanleyEdited: December 15, 2020, 10:38 AM If you use your ear instead its always JI ;) Put on wound-gut strings on A, D and G, tune the A to a tuner and the other three to the A. They go up and down according to the humidity mostly - and it forces you to retune every time you take the fiddle out. After a few weeks, just intonation tuning becomes a piece of cake.
Tom BopDecember 15, 2020, 10:40 AM tune every time you take the fiddle out no matter what! tune the A and do the others by ear. It gets very simple and automatic after a short time, and helps develop your ear.
J RayEdited: December 15, 2020, 1:12 PM They're all ET by default, even with a "violin" setting. The original NS Micro is definitely ET, and as I recall, it doesn't have much to help you fine-tune it off ET either (e.g. a frequency readout or cents off centre).There are several apps with custom temperament support - you need to find and learn how to use its settings if you want the reading to be directly useful for standard violin tuning. Thereafter it's trivial.Edit: I don't know for sure about the new colour MS Micro, but would be very surprised if it was tuned to violin/viola fifths. The "violin" / "viola" part seem to be more about the mount than the tuning. They're advertised as "chromatic", and so tune the entire range, not just the 4/5 violin strings. It'd be anyone's guess as to how the rest of the notes were tuned unless they specified a specific temperament, and if they did vary from ET, one would expect to have a setting to switch back to ET for more general utility.
Andrew VictorEdited: December 16, 2020, 1:08 PM I've got several of the original D'Addario Micro Tuners (one in each instrument case and 2 on my home music stand one violin/viola and one cello, which has a different "base" to attach to the bridge but is otherwise the same device).I have come to swear by them because in an orchestral setting you can't hear your own instrument well enough to tune well. Although I learned to tune to a tuning fork or piano (440A) when may age was in single digits I find it convenient to check my tuning against the tuner especially when playing with a piano. For violas and cellos the lowest string (C) will be far enough off when tuned in perfect fifths that you need to check that string against the piano - if there is any occasion to have to play the open C string in harmony with the piano.You have to realize that when you have tuned all the strings chances are your A string will have already changed when you think you are finished so it is good to have a way to double check it against a standard - I can't count on my ear for that and I'm reluctant to ask the oboist to toot again - the microtuner still attached to my fiddle can be that standard.
Bill BarberDecember 15, 2020, 6:02 PM I tune A to a fork then the rest by ear. I check with a phone app that reads freq. Perfect 5ths G-196, D-293.66, A 440.0, E-659.26
Mark BouquetDecember 15, 2020, 7:19 PM Bill Barber, your numbers are equal tempered values, not perfect fifths.
Gordon ShumwayEdited: December 16, 2020, 6:30 AM I have plenty of tuning forks (A, E and C 523/4 for ukes. Planet Waves used to make C 262, but they stopped, and I've never found any used ones on EBay). I usually tune in the green room, then pretend to tune in the auditorium. I don't have a smart phone.I just experimented. I used my Planet Waves E and A tuning forks on it. It thinks the A might be a tiny fraction flat (sharp if I tell it A=439), and the E might be sharp by a slightly larger fraction than the A is flat. This is probably only explicable as poor quality in the tuner, unless the forks are out. Don't imagine your phone apps are better quality!However, the difference between an ET G (196) and a JI G (195.55555) is less than half a cycle per second, and bow pressure will affect intonation by far more than that.
J RayDecember 16, 2020, 5:53 PM 1___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________That's almost 4 cents difference, which is audible when tuning by / playing fifths. But if we could play all notes within 4 cents...I might disagree about "bow pressure will affect intonation by far more" - it can, but typically won't.
J RayDecember 16, 2020, 5:54 PM 2_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________It's nice that a free app has this much capability, but its definition of "Perfect 5th" (for violins) doesn't match our standard tuning. It targets G: 195.9, D: 293.3, E 658.7. I.e. G: -0.56, D: -1.96, E: -1.40 cents. gString's D and (of course) A match standard violin values with this temperament, but the E and G don't.As per Gordon's post, these are close enough to not be worth quibbling over, but while we're here, the "ideal" values would be:
D -1.955, E: 1.955, and G: -3.910 (roughly: -2 cents, +2 cents, and -4 cents off ET). Frequencies: G: 195.6, D: 293.3 E: 660.0.You can enter those values in gStrings for a custom temperament, which is also great for a free app. However, on my device it wasn't very responsive to changes in notes and often detected the wrong part of the spectrum when trying to tune the E string. googletag.cmd.push(function() { googletag.display('div-gpt-ad-1445120547957-0'); }); 3_______________________________________________________________________ 5376163bf9
