FMIT
Free Music Instrument Tuner
Version 0.99.6
http://gillesdegottex.github.io/fmit/
FMIT is a graphical utility for tuning your musical instruments, with error
and volume history and advanced features like microtonal tuning, statistics,
and various views like waveform shape, harmonics ratios and real-time Discrete
Fourier Transform (DFT). All views and advanced features are optional so that
the interface can also be very simple.
This software is coded in C/C++ using the Qt library (http://qt-project.org).
It is stored as a GitHub project (https://github.com/gillesdegottex/fmit).
(It was previously stored on gna.org (https://gna.org/projects/fmit)
for versions<=0.99.5).
Goals
* Estimate the fundamental frequency (f0) of an audio signal, in real-time.
(the f0, not the perceived pitch)
* Keep any view optional so that the interface can be as simple as possible.
(make it easy to see on a distant screen)
* Support as many sound systems as possible.

Compilation & Installation
FMIT currently uses cmake:
To compile FMIT:
From fmit package directory, create a directory build:
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
Configure with standard options (see below for options):
$ cmake ..
Then as usual:
Compile
$ make
and install as root
# make install
------------------ For non-standard compilation ------------------
check options:
$ cmake -L ..
To change an option, for example configure with PortAudio:
$ cmake -D SOUNDSYSTEM_USE_PORTAUDIO=ON ..
