Only that experience will get the band able to tune itself. It is worth every minute of time invested!

Knowing that the old standard Master Key Chromatic Pitch instrument,( rotary pitch pipe ), is usually about 15 cent flat on the Bb, It at least gives a 'relative pitch' for training the novice ears to match. I use it regularly in community concert band rehearsals to start our tune up. This is then followed by key named scales done slowly. Most conductors love it.
