![]() ![]() One of the main characteristics of a vibrating piano wire is called INHARMONICITY that makes all the partials to be shifted on the sharp side compared to the theoratical values. The simple answer to the original question is yes: professionnal piano tuning softwares do work and can achieve a professionnal concert quality tuning.Ä«ut first, you have to understand the acoustic properties of a piano wire that makes it very different to any other souding bodies. ![]() I am a professionnal piano technician who started out as an aural tuner and then switched to EDT devices and softwares. (I am a professional piano tech who tunes both aurally and using said software.) If you have someone who can mentor you on the basics with some of the software, that would give you a great leg up, check out your local PTG chapter. That said, if you are reasonably mechanically inclined, have good fine/coarse motor skills and curiosity, I encourage you to give it a shot! That's how I got started. To the sub-questions: the reliability of the software is directly related to the knowledge and skill with which it is used yes, download the software from your favorite app store (though not all packages are available on all platforms) the standard microphones of modern mobile devices are sufficient the age, brand, and peculiarities of the piano all factor into the knowledge needed to effectively use the softwareÄisclaimer: you can severely damage a piano with just a tuning lever and insufficient sensitivity. It is not a matter of simply following the instructions, they all assume a level of knowledge of piano tuning. Perhaps everyone can operate a web browser, but not everyone can be effective in Emacs (extreme analogy). However just because the software is high quality doesn't mean anyone can operate them effectively. Some of the best examples of reputable and powerful professional tuning software are Tunelab, Verituner, and Cybertuner. Answering the original question: yes, the most widely used professional tuning software works very well for both high level and routine tuning as well as for learning and instructional tool use. ![]()
