Hi Terry,

RCT uses a sliding percentage of overpulls rather than "just" one number
(such as 25%). This data is stored in a "look up table" for each note of
the scale. This allows the pitch correction to be even more taylored to
pianos (for example 12% in the bass not 25%). Dean realizes that piano
design, hammer technique and "setting" the strings/pins (which can be done
more than one way) affect the compensation needed, so a slider is provided
to adjust the percentages up or down to "match" the over pull to the piano
and the "man on the bench".
