![]() Jumps in inharmonicity due to stringing changes cause mismatches in tuning, especially with more "challenging" instruments. ![]() ![]() Once the inharmonicity has been predicted, the machine will focus (listen) to a single partial to assist in tuning. The tuning calculation is based on a lot of research, and each machine has it's strengths, and differing amounts of flexibility and ease of use. The SAT, Cybertuner, and Tunelab allow for the measurement of the inharmonicity of differing number of notes to predict the inharmonicity of each note of the entire piano. Some pianos might work out fine, however, most will require adjustments to the tuning to get the intervals to work properly. The Peterson (and the Korg MT-1200) uses templates, or generic tuning curves to give the tuner a few options, in hopes of finding one that might come close to matching the piano. The puzzle in tuning a piano is to make the tuning "fit" the instrument, due to both personal preference, and the individual inharmonicity of each pianos strings.
