Hi Travis,

I can identify with a lot of what is in this post. However, there is one
exception.

Does you mean that on an ordinary PSO that requires a major pitch change,
you will pitch raise with one pass and then leave?
Why not justify an increased fee by doing a very quick pitch raise to get
in the ballpark and then fine tune with a second pass, thereby leaving the
PSO with the best that it could possibly sound? Doing it this way, I think,
will render a much better completed tuning than just doing 1 pass. If I
misunderstood your post, please forgive me.

I am anxious to discuss this as I know that 10 different tuners handle this
problem 10 different ways.
