Here is the new version of the HB tuner program for tuning equal F3-A4 temperament. I hope this will be a helpful tool for tuning/checking your temperaments.

Change log for version 1.6
- Inharmonicity measured/updated during tuning. No time needed for sampling notes before tuning.
- Inharmonicity measurement is complete when note color turns to red
- Microphone calibration added
- The following tuning sequence is required/recommended during tuning.

A4, A3, F3, F4, C#4 (retune F3 and F4)
F#3, G3, G#3, A#3, B3, C4 (retune F#3, G3, G#3, A#3, B3, C4)
F#4, G4, G#4, D4, D#4, E4

As with previous versions, the program needs java run time 8 installed beforehand. You can install jre 8 from the below Oracle download page.

BTW the file is completely safe.
The box.com message is a general message displayed for all executable files.

Hopefully I will get a chance to try it more fully over the Christmas break.

Thank you Chris.

I intend to develop this software to a full 88 note freeware tuning program.

So I need as much feedback as possible I can get. In this regard I count on the very valuable members like you.

I know how difficult it is to get constructive criticism and polite advise on software, but you have been helpful for me in the past.
