Hi David: There are quite a number of additional features which have been added since your #19 was made. The circuitry is better. Battery life is better. You can use sequencing if you wish to tune your temperament in a certain aural tuning order. You can convert any tuning to an historical type temperament on the fly. You have much more memory for stored tunings. You can give yourself or others a preliminary PTG aural tuning test. You have two basic pitchraising overshoots available (25% and 34%). You can lift one FAC tuning from one place in memory to another. You can vary the amount of the Double Octave spread on the fly at any time to cater to your personal preference for octave stretching. You can also shrink the stretch. The new Warm Start feature allows you to put the machine to sleep and still maintain all your settings. Auto-stepping either up or down or both ways is available. These are just a few of the features which come to mind as I write. There is nothing quite like having a dedicated machine to do the job you want it to do. It wont let you down.
