Perfect Pitch vs. Electronics
April 7, 2007 at 2:14 PM
I just had the best practice ever. I used my Intelli 500 to get close but seemed too high in practice so half way through I re-tuned and dropped the scale down to where my ear said the good solid note should be, not what the electronic windshield wiper told me. I was getting a high "tin-y" sound that just screamed false note, but the 500 was straight up and down.Sorry, Korea - I'll take my ear over your windshield wiper.
