If I'm seeking accuracy, after the calculation, I prefer to start at A4,
then tune A3 to see if that critical octave is ok.  Then tune down =
through
the bass unisons as you go with checks that can be done with one hand, =
i.e.,
octave fifth, fourth, progressive thirds.  Modify with the DOB  on the =
fly
if you need to.  Then tune up through the treble doing the same thing. =20

Until now I have been performing the FAC stretch calculation/analysis =
using
the SAT III on the piano and then began tuning chromatically from A0
upwards, tuning the single string unisons, and then the two and three =
string
unisons as I go along, using rubber mutes. I am wondering whether it =
would
be better to strip mute the piano, tune all the single strings, perform
checks on the intervals and octaves, and then go back and tune all the
unisons. =20

What would you advise that would produce the best, most accurate and =
fastest
result? Thank you for your help.=20
