[pianotech] Tuning to other than A440

[Ron Koval]

Julie (and others) - go to:

Not only do you see a pretty graph with all the offsets listed - along
with all of the other information is a number in red on the left border.
 
-4.89 
 
Since all of the offsets are positive numbers, A and F# are the only notes
tuned the same ET, while the largest offset is 11.73 cents from ET.  To 
"balance" the tuning (reducing the overall tension change as well as 
making the piano closer to ET) subtract 4.89 cents from all of the 
offsets. 
 
Is it 'right'?
 
Hmmmmm....  (I do it all the time for the Lehman/Bach)
