....."ETD generated tuning and refines it."

[David Ilvedson]

Gee Joe,

I've participated in Master tunings and we had the ETD there with us...we
certainly didn't tune the piano with it and then aurally check and make changes
but if a question came up we might check what the ETD said...it has been awhile
since I last assisted with a Master tuning though so maybe things have tightened up?

David I.
