Q: Can you tune my harmonium to A440?
A: Yes. Our expert technician is one of the best in North America. He has tuned hundreds of harmoniums to this standard and would gladly tune yours as well. Our custom tuning rate is $80 per reed bank. When you purchase a new harmonium from Old Delhi Music, we drop that cost to just $25 per reed bank.
Q: How about other standards, like A432?
A: This has become a popular request. It's also a very time intensive activity requiring multiple re-tunings to get the instrument settled in this range. We offer this service at a rate of $100 per reed bank. When you purchase a new harmonium from Old Delhi Music, we drop that service fee to just $50 per reed bank.
Q: How does harmonium tuning work?
A: A harmonium is a fixed reed instrument. Unlike a stringed instrument, which gets its tone from a string tightened to a particular tension, a harmonium gets its tone from a metal reed shaped and weighted in such a way that it produces a particular frequency when air moves across the reed. These reeds are mounted inside the instrument, which means they are not easily accessible. To adjust the frequency of a reed, metal is scraped off the top or the bottom of the reed, which changes the shape and weight of the reed slightly, resulting in a change of the pitch that particular reed produces.
Q: How many reeds are in a typical harmonium?
A: This varies, but you can determine this by adding up the number of keys (32-42 is common), multiplying that by the number of reed sets (2-4 is common), and then adding the number of drones.
Q: Is tuning something I can do?
A: Technically, it's something anyone could learn. But be warned: 1) It's tedious, 2) If you are not careful, you can easily make it worse rather than better, and 3) It requires a good ear for pitch and lots of comparison between intervals and octaves if you want to achieve good results. Along with tuning, you'll need to understand how to properly gap your reeds, etc.
Q: Once a harmonium has been tuned, how long will it stay in tune?
A: A well-tuned reed will generally stay relatively well-tuned for several years. Depending on the level of use, we recommend general tuning and service intervals every 2-5 years. The frequency will vary depending on how much the harmonium is used, moved, brought inside and outside, etc. If your harmonium is kept in a climate-controlled environment and babied, expect minimal maintenance costs. If you move it around a lot, you'll probably need to send it in for servicing more frequently.
Q: Do you service instruments that have not been purchased from your store?
A: Yes we do. For more details, please call (312-869-9092) or email (olddelhimusic gmail.com).
Q: Can you teach me how to tune my harmonium?
A: Sure. We offer support and instruction via Skype. Please call or email for additional details.
Q: I tried to tune my harmonium and ended up messing it up. Do you sell reeds?
A: We sell individual reeds ($10 each + shipping) or full reed sets. If you need an individual reed, please email a photo of the problem reed(s). In the photo, please place the problem reed(s) next to a ruler so we can verify we are sending a proper replacement.

Hi Lars,
Just wanted to let you know, it is such a joy not only to have our harmoniums back but to hear them in a whole new way in our hall! It has been a couple of months since I've been able to play the smaller one, so it's hard to compare exactly what it sounded like before, but I do feel that it has much more clarity and focus. Also, the keys are much more responsive since they don't stick!!!
Tonight our other harmonium player played the larger one, and to me, that one sounded at least 300% better than it used to! (Of course I didn't like it as much to begin with but I definitely like it better now!) Plus, I love that you changed the one drone stop to G instead of F#. I've told the folks who use the drone in the AM program, so at least we have a Plan B if we want to use it that way.
J**** and I had such a great time coming up, and it was fun to see your other harmoniums and how you did the work. All in all, it was a very enjoyable and productive trip!

A tuner is a device musicians use to detect pitch accuracy. It will let a musician know if the note they are playing is sharp (too high), flat (too low), or if it is in tune. The accuracy of a pitch is what musicians call intonation. Tuners work by detecting the frequency of the pitch (sound waves). For example, an A is 440 Hz. If an A is sharp, it will be 441 Hz or higher. If it is flat, it will register as 439 Hz or lower. While tuners work by tracking hertz, musicians measure how close they are to the pitch in measurements of cents. Cents and hertz are not the same things.
This tuner will require mic access through your web browser. If you have disabled it in the past, then the tuner will not work. - Chrome: Go to Settings -> Site Settings -> Microphone and allow this site to access the microphone. - Firefox: Go to Preferences -> click Privacy & Security -> Scroll down to permissions and select Settings. Search this site and select Allow.- Safari: Safari > Preferences, then click Websites. Change the microphone setting to allow this site.
In the last bullet above, we saw that a chord can sound out of tune even though every member of the chord is showing as in tune on a tuner. This is known as "just intonation." This table is just a guide and not hard rules. Always default to your ear and the ears of those around you. The most common way to discuss chords in a generic way is through numbers which represent the interval relationship to the root of the chord. As an example, the C Major chord has a root of C (it will always be in the name of the chord). The next member of this chord is a third above it, E, so we call it the third. The major third of the chord must be lowered 14 cents in order for it to sound in tune.
Professional Harmonium Tuner with unique algorithms designed for most accurate tuning.
It works well for a wide range of instruments and is tested with guitar, violin, flute, ukulele, some woodwind and brass, voice, and more. All mid range instruments are covered.
Harmonium Tuner to make, assemble, repair, adjust, restore musical instruments and tune them to the required pitch with hand or power tools. They usually specialise in one type of instrument, such as string instruments, brass instruments pianos, reed instruments or percussion instruments
This is automatic harmonium tuner - you just play the sound and the note and frequency are detected.
Calculates the height of notes of an instrument that is tuned with a defined musical tuning. The normal tuning is 440 hertz for the standard pitch A4. Often, the tuning is 442 hertz, in former times, 435 and 415 were used or sometimes values notably higher than 440 hertz. Enter a tuning frequency and choose a note from the list or enter a norm frequency. The norm frequency is the height of a note respective to the 440 Hz of A4. The frequency for the chosen tuning will be calculated.
Features:
- Automatic note selection
- Ultra responsive -50 to +50 cent range fine tuning display
- Precise to 1/100 semitone (1 cent) - may be used by stringers
- Analog like needle
- Exact frequency display.
- Clean bright and simple analog like UI
- Works in noisy surroundings
As a pitch detector the harmonium tuner app is capable of working in noisy evironment.
The Dhruva Nano Zx is a harmonium-type drone sruti box (sur-peti) that is also a Tuner / Sruti Box / Metronome. It produces a drone similar to a harmonium type traditional sruti box (sur-peti). It has a Tuner / Pitch-pipe with Digital Display, Dual scale system: Chromatic / Diatonic.

The indicator or note name on the wheel will turn green when the note is in tune and will turn red-orange when the note is out of tune. The 'in-tune' range for this tuner is +/- 5 cents to the target pitch and the 'out of tune' range is anything more than 20 cents sharp or flat to the note.
The basic model has two banks of reeds, with a single or double fold bellows. They are a small 3 octave console style, or a fold-up suitcase version. They are usually made from cheaper timbers, and the finish is relatively rough. They use the Solid Key Mechanism, as seen below.
The next level is the console or fold-up suitcase models with 2 banks of reeds, 3 1/4 octaves, with a 7 fold bellows. These are made from rosewood or teak. They use the Stick and Pallet Mechanism, as seen below.
Next are models with 3 banks of reeds and 3 3/4 octave ketboard, including some models with the addition of a coupler,, or a scale changer, or both. These can be console or fold-up. They are made from the finest quality woods and materials. They use the Stick, lever, and Pallet Mechanism as seen below. There are many other styles of harmoniums which are variations of the above 3 basic models.
