Hi Robert, I have downloaded your new Tunlab Pro and like what I see. But I does not understand what the different settings mean in the tuning template. I am putting this on the list because maybe there are more dummies out there who are also confused. Press T. Adjust via 6:3 single octave in bass and 4:1 double octave in treble, as this is how aural tuners tune. In the bass, 6 refers to the 6th partial in the high note and 3 refers to the 3rd partial in the one octave lower note ? In the treble, 4 is the partial of the lower note and 1 is the fundamental of the two octave higher note. ? In the bass section: What are 3:2 fifths and 6:4 fifths ? What is an octave and a fifth denoted at. ? Sorry, I am confused, you say use the 6:3 octave in the bass and using your sample Steinway D file this give a -2.44 cents at A0. To me that is too high and if I say I want to have pure double octaves in the bass and go on to 4:1 double octave in the bass, I wind up with a reading of +1.77 cents on A0. If I use 3:2 fifths it is -7.5 cents on A0 and using 6:4 fifth, it is -10.6 cents on A0. I tuned a Steinway D today and took measurements on C1 thru C6, F3 F4 A3 A4, and using the T template on 6:3 A0 was -2.51 cents. Close enough to your sample file but, I think that I always tune A0 to about -12 cents. Need input. Regards Tony Caught ICPTG Australia caute@optusnet.com.au
