This is all so odd–given the above, why wasn’t the fix made?  Perhaps a concern over the lower battery duration, from a marketing perspective?

 

 

Could be the person(s) that wrote the fix got laid off.

 As far as being a “value” brand, they do have to pick what things they invest in.  But I can’t help notice that of the other players people tested for comparison, none came anywhere near the error displayed by Clip and Fuze.  Do they really want the reputation of being “worst on the market by a long shot” wrt pitch?  

I’m curious to know if ANY other player at any price point has equivalent or greater error.  I don’t know what other brand uses AMS chips or if that’s a key factor.

Has anyone tested Fuze or Clip with Rockbox for this?  

 Speaking of Rockbox, a new release just came out with enhancements to pitch correction, and a tuner plugin that displays the note and cents error of the note coming in the microphone.
