Well, then, I shouldn't answer it ......... but fancy spices still do 
not equal the satisfaction of cooking it "live", with home-grown 
produce, so to speak.

I wasn't talking about the sound of the result, but rather the 
experience of the process for the tuner. After all, it is how we spend a 
large chunk of our collective lifespan. The quality of the result 
depends on the wits and ears of the practitioner, with or without the 
use of digital aids.
