Now we're getting to the nuts and bolts of what a hearing aid can  
offer to an aural tuner.

While we're at it, can someone with an RCT or TuneLab read some  
relative signal strengths on the 2d partial of G6 and the 1st of G7.  
Then does anybody know the point at which a series of pulses turns  
into a tone? 10 Hz, 15Hz? Is the point which beat rate is too fast to  
be unusable for us aural tuners any higher than 12 bps? Maybe that's  
another measurement for an ETD.

As pointed out earlier, aural tuning may be the least of the areas of  
our work affected by hearing loss, and possibly the last to be hit.  
This thread has barely scratched the surface. At least with water,  
you DO miss it when the well runs dry.
