I have been reading the remarks about the O2 sweep and I did a quick 
test on my O"1" .
While the sweep does pause a bit the faster you tune, it does update 
quickly and is useful to
tune with.  Practically speaking, I find the sweep updates fast enough 
to use with a 100Hz
step rate.  I usually use 10 Hz and 100Hz rates for my tuning "needs".

The tip to notice how far away the pip is that you want to tune to and 
do the math is a good
one.  I do wish the pips were centered regardless of mode.  I realize 
the concept behind the
offset, but its not intuitive to my way of thinking.
