To detune each string of your instrument by one semitone, lower the pitch of each string by one half step. For example, if you're using a guitar, you would lower the standard tuning of the strings: E to D#, A to G#, D to C#, G to F#, B to A, and E to D#. This can be done by loosening the tuning pegs slightly until each string reaches the desired pitch. Always check with a tuner to ensure accuracy.

What is a 1 semitone above G in tones and semitones?

Distance between a and d in music?
In the standard equal-tempered scale in use in nearly all modern Western music, each octave is divided into 12 semitone intervals, where each semitone interval is taken to represent a fixed percentage increase in frequency.An increase in pitch of one octave corresponds to a doubling in frequency (ignoring some subtle psychoacoustic effects near the limits of perception). If we say that each semitone corresponds to an increase of a factor k in frequency, then from the fact that twelve semitones equal one octave we obtain:k12 = 2.Hence, k = 21/12 which is approximately 1.05946. That is, an increase in pitch of one semitone is equivalent to an increase in frequency of about 5.946%.
What five letter word raises a note 1 semitone in pitch?

When do you use intonation?
In guitar playing, intonation is the exact amount of tones that each string will raise by as you move your finger up the fretboard (along the string). So basically each fret should be one tone above the one below, but if its 1.1 tones then by the time you get up to the 10th fret you will be 11 tones above the open string when you should only be 10. That said i remember the whole 'tone, tone, semitone, tone' thing so I'm not sure if a fret is 1 tone or a 1 semitone but you get the idea right? Basically if you're intonation 'is out' it means that one or more of your strings doesn't provide the right note when played higher up the guitar.
