Vintage Tuner Stompbox v1.0.1

Vintage Tuner Stompbox (Stompbox Series #02) is a photorealistic, retro analog needle chromatic tuner engineered for guitar and bass. Powered by our proprietary, open-source DSP engine (MIT License), it delivers smooth ballistic needle tracking without octave jumping, distracting jitter, or CPU overhead.

🌟 Key Features:

• 🎯 Dual DSP Engine (MPM & YIN):
  • MPM Mode: Ultra-fast transient tracking tailored for electric and acoustic guitar runs and chords.
  • YIN Mode: Optimized for 4- and 5-string bass, extended-range guitars, and drop tunings, tracking fundamental frequencies down to B0 (Low B at 25 Hz / 30.87 Hz).
• ⚡ True Zero-CPU Passthrough (0.0% Load): Suspends mathematical analysis threads when the plugin window is closed or bypassed. Safe to leave inserted across every channel in your DAW session.
• 🛡️ Smooth Ballistics & Hold Window: Exponential anti-jitter smoothing with a central deadzone (±0.6 cents) and a ~0.6s hold decay for natural string fading.
• 🔇 Silent Tuning & Safety Auto-Unmute: Stage/studio MUTE switch with automatic unmuting when the editor window closes to prevent accidental track muting.
• 🔊 Signal Conditioner + AGC (+41 dB Boost): Amplifies weak vintage single-coil pickups and long decaying notes without clipping.
• 🎛️ Intelligent Mono-to-Stereo: Automatically centers single-channel interface inputs across stereo monitor/headphone buses.
