Air, melody (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tune

I believe this is a double definition.

'air' is the first definition.
(air can mean a piece of music)

'melody' is the second definition.
(I know that melody can be written as tune)

(Other definitions for tune that I've seen before include "Melody; adjust (engine)" , "Optimise the condition of" , "Of engine, adjust to run smoothly" , "strain" , "Adjust (car engine); air" .)

I've seen this clue in The Irish Times and The Times.
