Hi Dale,

I believe that Steve Fairchild holds the "speed record" for a "pitch
correciton" at 300 seconds. (100 cents pitch change) *grin* I suspect his
pitch correction is "pretty good" too.

Personally I once did 11 pitch corrections in one day--when I was young and
foolish and "on the road" and would not be back for a year. I just didn't
have the heart to say "no" back then. Now I'd never be that foolish--and
I'd charge more, too!

By the way it takes me *longer* when the piano is "tuneable" (i.e. 2 cents
variation) than to whip through with an ETD and correct the pitch for a
client.

What is your definition of "tuning" Dale? I suspect you change the pitch
too much (and for free too!).
