Programmable drone

[imperialbari]

If you check your intonation with the relations between scales and open strings, then record your own drones.

An USB microphone may give a better representation of overtones than the built in one in a laptop computer. I haven’t done any recording since I used my long gone 4-track cassette recorder, but I think free apps like Audacity will do the job. Experts here will tell you.

More than one track gives you the option to include a click track to coordinate sound and rhythm. The clicks could be musical in the form of bass notes related to the given drone pitch. Guitar or viola might be relevant in that context.

Not an expert, but I use Audacity on a laptop and my H2 as the microphone and get good results. I use Audacity's click track to do multitracks. It works well and the program is very intuitive and user friendly (and free.) You do have to use an earbud; if the speakers are on the click track bleeds into the next track.
