Haha yeah! There is little that can beat the sound of strings coming
to full unison after hours or days of work. The rumble of a dischord
slowly converging, the beats slowing down, and if you have luck, you
arrive at a perfect sound where the beats are longer than the
instrument can sustain for. Or maybe you'll have to keep looking
because you adjusted too far. I still remember the first time I tuned
a violin.

David, didn't you make some sort of analysis of the Mopho? What did
you come up with?
