[CAUT] Development in audio recording technology

[Fred Sturm]

It occurs to me to wonder whether it might be possible to do research  
on real life tuning/pitch of performers on non-fixed pitch instruments  
using this technology. What people really do, as opposed to what they  
say they are trying to do. It certainly seems like this should be  
possible, looking at it from the outside. If you can "lasso" an  
isolated pitch/note, then you should be able to manipulate it so as to  
be able to prolong it enough to measure fairly precisely. And then you  
can compare instances of the same note at various places in a cut, and  
come up with samples of all notes and their ranges of pitch, and find  
endless possibilities of analysis.
