I will trust a machine over your best guess any day of the week. You are not
more accurate than a machine. To say this is naive to say the least. Have you
never experienced the accuracy of a computer? Perhaps you just dont
understand how those machines work and are scared of technology testing you
and discovering just how wrong you are. You would gain skills by realizing
that men before you have created machines that can help you improve your
accuracy and show you also how accurate you are. I can see however that this
thread is going no where ... I will just have to test recordings myself and
show this. With this in mind, anyone still listening, anyone know of a good
piece to test with this music?

This isn't a question of me being skeptical for the sake of playing devils
advocate.
