In this in-person tutor chat, Heather and Angela compare two Peterson strobe models and share what actually made a difference to tuning accuracy and workflow on lever and pedal harp. Expect plain-spoken pros/cons, real-world setup tips, and a few “wish I’d known this sooner” moments.In this episode: • What makes Peterson’s “harp sweeteners” different (and when to use them) • Freestanding HDC vs clip-on: accuracy, usability, and portability • The steep learning curve (and how to cut tuning time back down) • Dealing with overtones, noise, and where to clip/place your tuner • Price points and value: when the investment is worth it • Bonus on the HDC: built-in metronome, visual cues, and stage visibility • Why your ear still matters (and how to pair ear checks with a tuner)Watch to the end to leave with a clearer, calmer tuning routine that helps your harp ring true, and frees up more time for actual playing!Host: Heather Downie - Harpist, Principal Scottish Harp Tutor at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland, and founder of How To HarpGuest: Angela Boraston - Harp Tutor at How To HarpEnjoying the show?
