Peterson 490ST Strobe tuner....good?

[Richard Brekne]

A lot of this is written in earlier stuff  that Bradley and I were into just a
few weeks back. Also there is an old article in the Journal from mid late 70's
written by Sanderson that is of lots of interest in this regard. I will see if
I still have that exact copy laying around. There is frequencys and Cents data
from a finely tuned piano for the middle range of the piano which demonstrates
quite clearly what goes on to different intervals and their types in this range
when one interval type is held at a constant beat rate. In his case I believe
it was the 4:2 octave that was held at a constant wide 0.5 bps.. I have a graph
available showing the developement of the different octave types from this data
if anyone is interested
