I beg to differ. And don't worry I am not insulted, as I assume you never had the pleasure of using such vintage gear.
Why do Piano tuners use the Oscillascope + their ears....??
Because the tools were meant to get relative pitch as referencing, then the tuner could apply his trusted ears, and place the false beats where he chooses, according to the imperfect mechanics...
Why did Horowitz and most performing Concert Pianists fly a certain tuner around the globe to tune the Piano they were suppose to use....?
Same reason why a certain engineer or producer gets called.
Their ears and gear combined are awesome and very signature.
Worshippers of science and naysay-ers remind me of the VST versus Analog, Mac Vrs. PC arguments.
You use what "you think" sounds the best. Get the science and nature working together....
Is that beyond grasping...?
