[A6] A6 tuning test

[Steven Wartofsky]

I'd also recommend waiting 15 minutes before autotuning, and then watching closely as autotune takes place.  If it takes particularly longer for a particular oscillator voice (or filter bandwidth) to be tuned, investigate that a little further.  It's probably not a problem, but it might be an early sign of one.

  And of course, you should always Autotune the synth before you test this in 
  the store/owner.
  Synths in stores are nearly always whack out of tune because people just 
  turn them on and mess around and shut it off again. Just hit the Tune button 
  twice in a row and wait for a few minutes.
