Now - let's be honest. How many of you can thump your chest and say "I don't
really need a PC tuning program - I can lay the bearings by ear from a tuning
fork and complete the tuning by ear". Well? 



Moi. It's the only way I've ever done it. I've read all the arguments in favor
of cybernetic tuning, but none yet have seemed compelling enough for me to
change my ways. Maybe if someday I came into a concert hall to tune, and saw the
seats occupied by oscilloscopes attached to microphones, that might give me
pause.

Yes, but their arms are too short to both play the piano keys and tune at the
same time. 
 
Let alone thump their chests.
