How to Detect Pitch from an Audio File

Hello

I thought I posted this from my phone last night, but I guess not. If you find it--I'll delete this one.
 
I've got a few measures of several guitar and bass audio files and one of them
is slightly off pitch.

The pitch is so slightly off that when I solo each track I can't tell which
track it is.

Is there a plug in that I can use that will help me determine which track is
off pitch?

I can't recall if my tuner will work with recorded audio. :-( I'm done in the
studio for the night.

I have SF 10 Pro and Wavelab 8 too.

Thanks

Stephen Davis

    You may want to look at the clips with V-Vocal (Works better with Melodyne though).

    I thought about V-Vocal but the guitar parts are chords.

    I guess I could check the bass line with it.

    Thanks

    You can record a note from a synth that you know is in tune and then compare your tracks with this. Pick an organ sound or something similar that has a solid tone.
