[Pd] Tuning a Mac

[Chuckk Hubbard]

Nevermind... I was checking against the keyboard after playing part of
a microtonal piece... without resetting pitchbend.  I checked against
my online mp3 of the piece, and it is the same.  Now it's going to
drive me crazy that I thought it was flat to start with...
