I have a better question. Whatever reason do you have for choosing the URL you did? IMHO it does not belong on this list. ... From: "erohwhctib69"...

Hi, I agree with Anne. Dude, change your freakin' email address if you want respect from anyone. I used to have a less than couth email address myself, but...
I use a tuner very rarely during a rehearsal, usually as a reference point. e.g. "okay the oboe's high and i'm right on the money. gee, i better 'fix' my...
... YES!!!! You took the words right out of my mouth. The time to get your instrument in tune with itself is at home when you practice. In a group, you need to...

Umm, I thought that the idea was that you used the built in tuners attached to the sides of your head. I do use a tuner in the privacy of my practice room to ...
in a perfect world, those built in tuners would be able to discern everything. but this is not a perfect world. and behalf of all the part-time horn players...
I disagree. I feel lucky when I can pick up the horn a couple of times a week; I am a rank amateur. Note that I mostly address technical subjects. Even so, I ...
I have to respectfully disagree with this. Remember that a tuner will only get you in equal temperament, not in tune (except the octaves). Respectfully...
Well, I believe one can learn a great deal from using a tuner. I was not born with perfect pitch - I've had to learn it. I learned it not so much by...

If you go back to my other comments, you will have a better appreciation of what I'm advocating. Remember my comment, "Oh, the oboe is reading high and i'm...
Why does one need a tuner to tell the oboe is high? The paint peeling off the walls with the horrific sound is usually a good sign, not to mention the fact ...
The heirarchy is 1st horn. They listen to whoever has the lead. Period. All that listen down stuff is more of a balance thing. As for intonation, you're a...
Dear Justin, Please change your email name - it is offensive to me. There are also many middle school students on the list who are exposed to enough filth ...
Co-op Press is pleased to announce that the winners in the 2004 Co-op Press Brass Recording Competition. Dr. Kenyon Wilson, was awarded the first prize of $500...
A tuner is tempered in pitch and will screw up everything I am taught about sound of the horn. If one cannot play in tune with others, then maybe one needs to ...
Matthew, If you'd actually read the thread, you'd see that this discussion lies primarily with amateurs, so we HAVE found another profession. ARe you saying...
Wow! I didn't know that playing in tune would affect my profession as a computer programmer! Margaret An amateur horn player P.S. Transposing is mathematical...
I see tuners in a couple of the groups I play in. What I have found, is that the people who use them have never had any instruction whatsoever on just...
Something I forgot to say....you can tell the professionalism of a group by the lack of arguments about who is out of tune; that is because each player reacts...
Dear fellow listers. Please, please, please think about how much junk you send to the list. I'm not referring to the content of your postings - no complaints...
Sandra has touched on an extremely important aspect of fine intonation. A perfect interval (pure) has a particular "quality" or "feeling". The P5 has a very...
I will just state my point again, without getting personal again, using a tuner during a rehearsal, concert, whatever is not making music. Use a tuner at home,...
I'm not John, but I'll tell you how I use my attachable tuner: When the entire band is warming up individually, it's really hard for my tuner to figure out who...
