1. Seeing in real time how each of the interval weightings (16 in total + the additional bass/treble extra stretch options) directly affects the overall curve is both invaluable and fascinating! My 1st EVER time tuning a piano worked so well I'll never hire a tuner again! Well done!!Where to start.
2. I performed a first pass to get the piano close (within a cent) to the tuning curve (it took over 5 hours for me to complete the first pass, but with this app I was confident the whole way).
3. After 50 years of aural tuning, my most noticeable speed-up is that PianoMeter detects slippage immediately.
4. By the end of the tuning on a high quality piano, we agreed on the stretch, too.
5. The results remained accurate for every note on the piano.With this app I was able to tune my piano for my first time.
6. Thanks!!I'm in the middle of tuning my piano (first attempt at runing more than the odd note) and this app is the easiest way to get started that I found so far.
7. After 50 years of tuning (now 52) I have enough hearing loss so as to NEED the expert coaching that PianoMeter gives.
8. Proofreading with all my aural tests shows that PianoMeter makes a better end-to-end temperament and stretch than I do aurally.
9. There have been cases where aural tuning required me to set two wires one or two cents apart according to the meter.
10. When I tune an aural unison, if the "fixed" wire slips, both wires are flat and I need to make beat comparisons to find the error.
11. One gets a feel for how different the beat frequencies should be, but PianoMeter works it out over the whole piano.
