What are you using for piano's? Trying to recall what my tuning guy uses, don't see it in a quick scan of piano tuning app$$$.Scodiddly wrote: ↑Tue Jan 03, 2023 5:51 amNope, it's a Taylor and the intonation is dead-nuts on. Also middle D on my piano gives the same 4 cents off. Also if I tune my guitar up with the Peterson and play a chord, the D is definitely out of tune even when it's the open string in the chord.Nick Sevilla wrote: ↑Mon Jan 02, 2023 11:30 pmThe other possibility, is the intonation of the instrument being off...
I do tune pianos as a hobby, so I'm reasonably sure I have higher standards now than a lot of other tuner users.
iOS tuner apps?

Re: iOS tuner apps?
We go back to my original post - I was using "AP Tuner" which is orphaned and did not survive the last big iOS upgrade.
EDIT: I still have it working on a couple older phones and an iPad which haven't gotten the big update.
Real piano technicians spend hundreds of dollars on a tuning app. The big one is "CyberTuner", which goes for a cool $999.99 *and* has in-app purchases. So that's sort of your ProTools of tuner apps. I'm looking for something more on a Reaper budget.

Well then it sounds like the app is not tracking correctly. And that sucks.Scodiddly wrote: ↑Tue Jan 03, 2023 5:51 amNope, it's a Taylor and the intonation is dead-nuts on.

Howling at the neighbors. Hoping they have more mic cables.

Re: iOS tuner apps?
Crisis somewhat averted as I picked up an old iPad 2nd generation for $20. The AP Tuner is not available for purchase on the Apple app store, but it was still available for download since I'd already bought it. Yay! A reason to hoard all my old iPhones, too.
