Actually, the recording studio work is done that early, it has to be done before the session's load-in, drum sounds, and catering etc, and it is very quiet at that time of morning. (plus, I love my work, and I still can't wait to get started most mornings. ) I do have a number of residential customers that like to make appointments at 6:00 a.m or so. They are early risers and don't mind avoiding having to make arrangements for someone to meet me later in the day. I don't tune after the noon hour, it seems that my aural sensibilities are a little tired by then. The pinblock is just something to do while I am resting. Regards, Ed Foote RPT
