tuning

2008-06-25 by john barrick

Hi all, I'm in the process of calibrating my SMS4 card and am at the
point of tuning. DK's instructions suggest tuning A to 440, and I hope
this doesn't sound too stupid, but which A are we talking about? I
assume it's the low A on the keyboard. Also, I have cello, three
violins, and 8 voice in my frame - which would be the best (most stable)
for tuning? I've been trying to use an old korg guitar tuner, and it
pretty much bouces all over the place. I was thinking of tuning by ear
to a sample played off my computer? Any thoughts?
