v.14
To pass this unit, you must use an ETD to tune A4 using DSU.
Notes:
Send in a video.
Narrate as you tune. Let us know what you are thinking.
Start at least 4 cents flat.
Use iStroboSoft or equivalent and show the ETD to the camera.
Only look at the ETD when measuring a clean DSU.
Submission Steps:
- Mute the right string of A4.
- Clean up the DSU.
- Measure it with the ETD*.
- Move one string of the DSU and make the DSU out-of-tune by the amount that the ETD says it was out from 440 Hz.
- Move the other string and make the DSU clean again.
Go back to step 3 and measure the A4 again.
Keep doing steps 3, 4, and 5 until the A4 DSU is 440 Hz +/- 1 cent. - Remove the mute.
- Tune the third string clean to the DSU.
- Play A4 moderately loud, 3 – 4 seconds.
- Play A4 3 times very loud to test stability.
- Play A4 again moderately loud and let it sustain for 3 – 4 seconds.
* Always show the ETD to the camera.
