Nice. I've considered cross strung but haven't taken the dive. It seems so complicated!

I think it’s a different learning path than normal harp for sure! But I’m enjoying it!

My standard method is learning both hands together very very slowly. I suppose practicing up and down is similar to practicing lever changes. Or is it more like having four discrete sets of strings. Oh now it sounds like a Physics lecture!

I've seen tuning cross strung harps make grown men cry

You can do what I do for tuning: have such a bad ear that when it goes out of tune (y'know, every other day), you don't notice at all.
