Default Tuning Songs

Let’s see what everyone is doing. Are you tuning using specific songs that are known to reach
each end of the vocal spectrum or are your tuning it to the type of music you listen to?

Most wont share their secret sauce tuning song but will share what is common knowledge songs. I use 2 versions of the same song for specific tweaking. Ain't no sunshine Lido version (hate that bubble song) for the highs and DMX version for the lows to tweak the cross overs. Gains with Blood sweat and tears Spinning wheel because of the horns and vocals. Beth Hart Sunday kind of love also for the vocals. Gotta love me some Beth Hart.

yeah I wasn’t looking for specific songs as I know it’s a secret for most just was wondering if there was specific songs or
just what genre they listen too

Hell I misread your original post. I use all spectrums of music to tune including dubstep, rap, techno (most comp type music) and good jazz. Stevie Ray and Joe Bonamassa is hard to beat for me.

That's some funny **** right there. Hell if it was a secret they probably wouldn't have given it to you Lol.

Frenchie I have a couple go to songs for tuning but I'm always looking and trying out new songs. I look for songs with a very wide dynamic range and also songs using more than your common band instruments.
Try this one on for size. Weird but easy listening.
