Hi Kevin Itīs not so much learning as finding out by discovering by trying it out on a few yukkie ones, and then comparing the same experiment on a not so yukkie one. Itīs really quite simple. I donīt use an ETD so I donīt have any numbers. But, here goes, this even sounds stupid, but just tune the note until it sounds the best you can do with it. Do you think that perhaps youīve even been doing beat elimination all along, but not realized or something? All it does is really substitute one sound wave for another. You eliminate one beat, but get another one, not as obscene as the other. Thatīs all.
