I don't recall forbidding you to listen past a half second. I said most 
everything you need is within the first half second of the attack. And 
yes, you can hear a 3+ second beat begin to diverge in that time frame. 
If you were to try it, you might discover that. You were asking about 
ways to lower your tuning time. I've given you one I have found by my 
own experience and that of others, to work very well. You can try it and 
learn for yourself what it has to offer you, or not. Arguing against it 
without trying it (which, unlike a new hammer, won't cost you anything) 
won't teach you anything at all.

Take it or leave it.
