Niskanen String Calculator
With this handy tool, you always know what the right string and tension is. You can choose the type of instrument (renaissance lute, baroque lute…), the length of the vibrating string (scale length), the pitch (415Hz or 440Hz) and the type of string. The calculator does the rest and even shows the tension in kilograms per string.
