If it matters, I tune from A0 to C88 when doing pitch raises. I then =
start at A4 and tune down through the temperament, checking thirds and =
fourths as I go, and other tests further on through the bass. Then I go =
back to A4 and tune up to the top.  Works for me. When I'm done I always =
run 17ths quickly for anything that stands out as being out of line.
Kevin.

  After setting the FAC or selecting a factory FAC I've been tuning from =
A0=20
  to C88. I don't think the sound is the same. Wayne Lutzow Lincoln, CA

  Wayne,

     I, for one, never tune straight from A0 to C88.  I use an ETD and =
tune=20
  in the same order as aural: 1.temperament area, 2.treble, 3.bass,=20
  4.unisons.   I occasionally test the intervals as I go along because I =
know=20
  that my ears hear things the ETD cannot hear.  I tell my clients that =
the=20
  ETD does NOT replace listening.  But it sure is a BIG help for speed =
and=20
  for stability in setting the pins.   "My ears have the last word." heh =
