Greetings list, I'm a little puzzled trying to copy my existing tunings from my Accutuner over to my laptop and into Tunelab. I realize that I must do it one note at a time but the Tunelab numerical editor asks which partial it's listening to. The accutuner manual says to press mem to reveal which partial your using but it reveals which note not which partial. I must confess to an ignorance as to how to figure out the carious steps of partials. Does it not go from an octave to the nest fifth to the next octave ... and then what? Additionally does anyone know of a way to compute a tuning in Tunelab that doesn't require 15 minutes to accomplish? I can't justify spending that amount of time just building a tuning that I may not use again. I like the program and the basic configuration and having all my other files with me and games to play when I'm bored on the road and I'm getting off track here. I hope that this is available. I don't mind spending the time tweaking a tuning for those clients I see regularly but for that fly by the night customer who has the piano tuned once every 10-20 years whether it need it or not ... no way am I going to spend that kind of time on them. I've used the Accutuner for a couple years now and I really like the help on days of fatigue and such but I do seem to stay with my ear a lot anyway so 15 extra tuning minutes, again, is not very appealing. Have I beaten this subject to death yet? Thanks in advance to those who care to shed some light! Greg Newell
