Blatent commercial endorsement ...was Tuning

[Farrell]

Ahhhhh. Now I understand. And this is one reason why a dedicated unit is 
preferred by some. I can scroll through the phone directory on my cell phone 
and answer and place a call. That's it. Anything else is beyond me and I 
don't care to learn how to do anything else. Sorry to sound like a moronic 
Neanderthal.

The dedicated unit is more simple to operate. Yes, of course the computer is 
easy - or the ETD running off a cell phone or whatever. But jumpin' 
jimminies, if I had to learn all that stuff, I'd just get my aural skill to 
a level where I didn't benefit from any of it.

I know this doesn't sound too intellectual, but I spend many, many hours per 
week studying and experimenting with soundboard panels, and ribs, and 
bending cut-off and bridges and new clamping systems, and new glues, and new 
wood surface preparation techniques and all sorts of stuff, and in all 
honesty, if I can save one hour of learning how to punch a button on a 
computerized tuning aid, I'm all for it. I work way too many hours as it is, 
it's just a simply case where some folks find the dedicated machine to be 
more simple to use.

And that's all I got to say about that (I think).
