Finger with four online tires

The four plains are put up with La, re, Fa, Si, from the 4th string to the 1st: the tuning that in Colombia is known as a natural tempere and in Venezuela as a "cambur pint." The 1st string is more serious than the 2nd: it's a re-entry tuning.

The four have four simple nylon strings. The 1st, Si3, sounds a fifth under the 2nd (Fa) and barely a tone above the 4th (La3). That's why the chords of the four are so together and their scrape sounds compact.

To air, the four strings form a minor Si chord with seventh (Si, re, Fa, La): a soft scattering is a good way to check that everything was put into place.

The four at the hump

The four are accompanied by the harp (or the candola) and the maracas with a dry and fast scattering that holds up harmony and rhythm. If you want to work the pulse of the juropus, practice with the Juropo methonome.

How to tuning The four plain with this tuner

  1. Touch Engage Mic and accept your browser's permission. The sound is analysed on your device: it isn't recorded or sent.
  2. Let the target string at Auto so that the tuner will recognize what string you play, or touch a note to fix it.
  3. Touch a single string into the air with mean force and let it sound.
  4. If the needle's at the left, the note's low: put up the tuning. If it's at the right, put it down. Between − 5 and + 5 cents it's thought to be tuning.
  5. Use the speaker with each note to listen to reference and train your ear.
  6. Reg all the ropes at the end: some have a few moves to each other.

Tips To Refine Your four plain

  • The 1st string (Si) is more serious than the 2nd: don't get her up looking for an acute Si, because you can blow her up.
  • The nylon strings are greatly stretched: with new ropes, they are put up several times at each session.
  • If the four travel between hot and cold ground, wait a few minutes before tuning: the nylon reacts quickly to temperature.
  • Stretching every string with his finger and his finger, and his finger and his finger and his finger and his finger and his finger and his finger and his finger and his finger and his finger and his finger and his finger and his finger and his finger and his finger and his finger.

Common problems with tuning

  • The needle leapes between notes: He plays a single string, a little more soft, and waits for the sound to stabilize. The first instant of every note always sounds a little more sharp.
  • Do not detect serious strings: The cell phone microphones miscapture low frequencies. Reach it to the instrument or play the harmonic half of the string (3): The tuning agent recognizes it as the same string and warns you that an octave sounds up.
  • The air's tuned, but what you play sounds bad: Check that no string is at the wrong octave and that the strings aren't old. If you're still old, ask your teacher or a luthier to check the calibration of the instrument.
  • It's clear right away: The new strings are stretching for several days and changes in temperature and moisture move tuning. Filling at the same place you will play.
  • The browser does not order the microphone: Check the site's permissions into the browser's configuration and that no other apps are using the bug.
