CymaScope.com are also currently building a CymaPiano app for iPhone and iPad that makes visible the first 40 notes of the piano.
The
app can be switched between 432 Hertz, 440 Hertz and 444 Hertz tuning
options. In each case the harmonics and dynamics of the piano, as imaged
on the CymaScope, are made visible, thus showing the differences in
geometries with the three different tunings. The app will also be a lot
of
fun to use because the CymaPiano can be played both manually and by
voice, so as you sing to the iPhone the piano will play the notes you
are singing. The app
also features a full demo piece by internationally renowned concert
pianist, Daniel Levy, of piano music made visible for the first time.
For more info go to the link above. Look for a video of how the app will work soon :)
