Hi Jon: Steve Fairchild's record was much faster than that and it is in the Guinness book of records. We saw him do a similar thing at several conventions. He still holds the world's record. Jim Coleman, PS When he got it under 10 minutes, I gave up trying to challenge him. He went into training for this over several months time, pitch raising his own Acrosonic a half step every day. Of course he had to lower it each time too.
