The guys in the local chapter have asked me to bring my Verituner for show-and-tell to the next chapter meeting(Tuesday), so I've been reading through the manual and come up with a little confusion that I hope someone will clarify, namely, Overpull percentages. The machine lists as default three percentages 10 (wound strings); 30 (plainwire); and 36% (treble) or all. I know you can change these and turn them on and off as you progress up/down the piano. My questions are, how does the piano know which strings are wound and not? If you highlight them "all", does the piano change them as you tune up or down? The default percentages also confuse me as I have rarely, if ever, found 10 % to be appropriate (common ) for a bass pitch raise and 30% seems to be a little high for a default percentage for midrage notes. Can anyone shine a little light on this? Thanks. Phil Ryan
