Music Assistant Reviewgood, but can be better - Version: 2.0.0, 7/24/2008 07:05AM PST

The app fulfills its purpose in a very (too much?) simple interface. It misses a mute sound/flashing blink feature. Surprisingly, it has a very sophisticated tuning aid feature, with even two different microtonal tuning systems, but lacks other pitch references than the north-american A440 (you can do that using the Lucy system, though), and has no other choice but the A as reference. But from the bunch of metronome apps I downloaded to try, seemed me the best one.

Music Assistant ReviewGreat Microtonal Tuning App For MAC OS X - Version: 2.0.0, 5/17/2008 07:29PM PST

This newest version of Music Assistant has had a nice little update, the ability to microtune the tuning tones. As a player of microtonal guitars this is simply brilliant - and it's free! Also the addition of the Lucy Tuning window makes the job of tuning a Lucy Scale Guitar so much simpler.

Highly recommended.
