They're accurate, but most don't have good enough resolution to get

something that displays cents off pitch is useful.

Wait, people can't hear when they're out of tune? Can't tune a pure unison by ear?

If that skill is missing seems like a strobe tuner will get at best one note in tune.




You do need to get one note in tune before you can do anything
worthwhile. The rest is ease, convenience, and time.
