Mike: On pianos that are chaos (1 note -55-cents, the next -162-cents) yes, I do use the overpull mode letting TuneLab listen and calculate. Fortunately I don't find those often. Most are just something like 20 cents flat and I set TuneLab sharp by 25% of that and begin. I don't even use the "overpull" function. I just set the offset sharp and go. Normally I can calculate 25% in my head! dave *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 4/19/02 at 7:54 PM Mike and Jane Spalding wrote: >Dave, > >Great tip, I could see this method saving me lots of time.
