Hi Bob :)

We can already do that (always have been able to), but that is a fixed detune.
Play the same note repeatedly on the badly tuned 'piano' and it will be just as
badly tuned every time.

This idea doesn't really work with piano type instruments, as every time you
hit the same note it will be slightly different. It should work well with a
solo violin.

​Would work for reeds/brass as well. I know that on my real saxophone I never play the same tuning twice ... or so I'm told.

I'm a big fan of small random "fixings" on synth voices. Seems to make them more real.​
