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".
