Doepfer

never mind, i figured it out.  i was not holding the adjuster button down long enough on 
the a190.  a single push makes such a minute adjustment that even after pushing it many 
many times it didn't do much, but holding it down makes it move much faster so with 
some fiddling i found a good scale setting.  everything is properly in tune now.
thanks, psm
