My Boss TU-12H is able to notice all frequencies from the DX7 and claims that all frequencies are accurate. My hearing claims that the Boss tuner's claim is ok and that gxtuner is mistake. Some years ago I tested several tuners. The Boss TU-12H is one of the best I know, while many other tuners were completely unusable. One Linux tuner I tested was very good too, IIRC it was fmit but it doesn't work anymore since years, perhaps it was another Linux tuner. I bought and tested many tuners, the Boss TU-12H and another one from Korg (not available anymore) are the only tuners that fit to my taste ... yes, one Linux tuner, perhaps fmit fit to my needs too, but it stopped working years ago. I don't test tuners all the times, I simply stay with the tuner that fits to my needs. You should test any instrument tuner available for Linux, some might be crap and others might do what you want.
