If your SAT III has any trouble with note switching, send it back to
Inventronics. I have one of the early ones, and when I first used it, it had
lots of trouble stabilizing on the targeted note. I sent it back to
Sanderson's and it came back a totally different machine. It now switches
notes quickely and accurately. Keep in mind that they have always had a bit
of trouble autostepping on the few lowest bass notes - especially on small
pianos. I find that when tuning large, good quality grands, the autostepping
often works fine in the low bass, but on little Kimball, etc. consoles and
such I need to manually advance the unit for the first four or five notes.
After that I'm in autopilot.
