TuneLab software is ideal for
students and domestic tuners,
also giving the precision for concert tunings.
Students will find it helpful in checking their tuning with TuneLab.
They can use TuneLab to set intervals so they can hear the beats, and
then try
and attain the same results aurally.
Domestic Tuners will find it takes the strain out of tuning pianos with
old
strings that beat and wow throughout the compass.
Use TuneLab to set the first string and then tune the unisons by ear.
TuneLab will assist you to do more tunings per day and prolong your
career, especially
as the private pension funds are doing so well!!!
Concert Tuners will find TuneLab very helpful in those situations where
the peace
and quiet you were promised, is shattered by roadies assembling the
stage and even
the erection of steel security fencing with pneumatic spanners, which
happened
to me at the Nottingham Arena.
I do not advise that you purchase TuneLab software or any other tuning
software,
and expect to take up piano tuning. It's not that simple!
You need a good grounding in aural tuning and
technique first, so if the batteries run
flat, or you get to your first tuning and find you have left your IPAQ
back
home on charge, you are still able to complete the your day’s
work. Joking apart,
getting the piano in tune is
only half the job. Getting the piano to stay in tune is the main
requirement expected
by the customer.
You should not tune pianos commercially until your tuning has been
checked by a
competent qualified piano tuner. The Piano Tuners Association exam is a
good
test, or you could attend the piano tuners course at the Lincoln
College, Newark Campus.
For
the
visually impaired there is the Blind Piano Tuners Association
Course.
