This would be a five start project if they would only build the VST capability into the software, better yet update to VST3.
That said, I could not live without it! It is accurate, it is responsive, it is flexible, and it is reliable, which is all I ask for in a tuner.
I've been using strobe tuners since I picked up a used Conn strobe tuner a LONG time ago. I later purchased the original Strobostomp (you know, the Blue, rather strangely shaped version) not long after they were introduced, and it has lived on my pedal board ever since. For studio use I picked up StroboSoft, and I have never been disappointed with either one.
I will eventually upgrade the pedal to something that takes up less space (and has a few new features), not sure when.
The products are fantastic, the company is fantastic!

Bought this years ago and still waiting for the DAW version. Lame, lame, so very lame.

64Bit version of this after 5 years of waiting!
It works... but I can't adjust which inputs to use. I can only use it via a microphone on the computer... really?
Hey! What's another 5 years wait, maybe we'll get to choose the input from an interface to the tuner. Oh and maybe an update on the UI? I can only wait!!
Peterson rocks otherwise.
My first use of a strobe tuner was the Model 700 and it was so great after using Korg and other junky wobbly needle tuners. I went straight to the strobostomp and finally StroboClip-HD.
So hopefully this is the only product that got overlooked. Thanks for all the great work otherwise!

This works great and even catches fast transients like a banjo uke with a 12" scale, and a xylophone. I wish the spectral analyzer screen captured the frequency response of a sound and then froze, so you could actually look at it closely. Also wish the spectral analyzer screen was larger. But this software works for me. All the negative reviews are from Apple people or people who want to embed this software. I just want to tune instruments in real time. I use a Shure M57 mic, a Scarlett 2i2 USB audio interface, and a Windows PC. Install was easy.

I've always used only the Peterson tuner, but the desktop software is very slow to respond. And you can't just load it from Pro Tools, and you have to install it every time you use it as a standalone.

ive wanted this software for years ive had two strobo clip hd but only paid for one.the first one i bought stoped working but it was still under warranty and their customer service was the best,i had a new tuner in just a few days..anyway I recently purchased the Strobosoft 2.0 Deluxe software guitar tuner, and I am absolutely blown away by its performance. This tuner is truly top-notch and deserves every single one of its 5 stars.

I am happy with the STROBOSOFT 2.0 but I gave it four stars because it doesn’t scale very well on 4K screens. That was disappointing because I really wanted an experience similar to the tablet tuner product from the past. So, if it could be tweaked with a option to scale it up, that would be sweet. But, in the meantime, it is a go-to tuner for sure.
