>I know some people here tune aurally and others have ETDīs, some even tune >orally. I get to meet some customers once in a while who tune that way, trying to sing or whistle the note I am tuning. They are so precise that neither my experienced ears nor my ultimate ETD get even close to the oral frequencies I hear. In these cases, I would certainly take patience pills aurally, oups, orally... >And the ones that use ETDīs, did you work as aural tuners first? >From what I know, most of the visual tuners in North America started as aural tuners as everyone is encouraged to learn to tune aurally first, no matter which technique they would use later. I was told also that in Japan, they do things the other way around: tuners start learning with a machine first and get rid of it when they reach a professional level.
