Hi Jason,

I could not disagree more with you about etd's and learning aural tuning.
If they are used properly they will reduce the learning curve for aural
tuning to a minimum. Unisons are rarely tuned by etd. I do recommend a
mentor be found if at all possible.

electronic tuning tools. But as a new tuner, you need to be wary of
learning through an electronic device; your ears need training, and the
electronic devices bypass that.

(actually many, but one for now).  Do most of you tune by ear, or with an
electronic tuner, or a combination of both? Thanks,
