[pianotech] Tuning speed

[Leslie Bartlett]

I'd like to see some of the aural tunings put to the test of the machines.
They did that twice years ago with Jim Coleman using an SAT and Virgil Smith
tuning aurally. First year the machine was voted the winner.  Now if a
machine can tune at the level of Virgil Smith, it certainly is going to be
superior to most aural tunings.

AMEN, AMEN and A M E N  - I use Cybertuner too.

Plus, my mentor of 30+ years aural tuning, taught me to tune with
Cybertuner.

BUT, I'm sure some of the staunch aural tuners will NEVER try using an ETD.
