CyberTuner and Tunelab
I’ve now worked with both Tunelab and Cybertuner piano tuning software. I trained as an aural tuner and tuned that way until about 2005. There has traditionally been a prejudice against electronic tuning devices primarily because of the inaccurate machines that were available prior to the late 1970’s when Albert Sanderson introduced his Accu-tuner.
The application of modern computer technology brought an accuracy and flexibility that the early machines couldn’t even dream of. Slowly more and more aural tuners are using them in various ways.
The customary way of using a modern ETD is to calculate the stretch for the piano you’re working on, and then start with A0 and go up chromatically to C8. This procedure is quite different from the sequence used in aural tuning where the core octave in the center of the piano is tuned first and then spread out chromatically in both directions. Many aural tuners keep to this tradition, using the machine to set the temperament octave and then aurally tuning out from there.
I’ve completely integrated an ETD into my tuning sequence in a different way. I tune the whole piano from bottom to top with the device. I then go back over the complete piano using primarily ear. I’ve found that using the ETD allows me to go through the first pass so quickly that my careful double tunings take no more time.
I started with the Reyburn Cybertuner but it was running on an old HP Ipaq that finally gave up the ghost. The new Reyburn version only runs on the Apple IOS and I’m an Android guy, so what to do?
Move to Tunelab, that’s what to do. I really like the software, easy to use and I’m able to tweak it to give me the reduced stretch that I prefer. The new ETD software, like Tunelab and Cybertuner, is amazingly sensitive and precise, but it will not automatically give you a great, musical tuning with clean, clear unisons. The ear is still very important.
Which do I prefer? I like them both but there are some differences. The pitchraise function works a little better on Cybertuner. You do pitch raises on the fly, with the device calculating the overpull as you tune each note. With Tunelab you have to sample each key, or you have the option of sampling only the white keys. Then you go back and do the overpull tuning. This takes a little longer but I find the overpull on the Tunelab works just as well as Cybertuner, just not as quickly.
iRCT is computer software that transforms an Apple iOS hand-held computer into the most advanced visual piano tuning device available. New iRCT version 7.0.5 now available on the App Store! This is a FREE and recommended upgrade for all CyberTuner for Apple iOS users.

Why is Reyburn CyberTuner the visual tuning device preferred by so many professional piano tuners?Reyburn CyberTuner for iOS (iRCT) is the only piano visual tuning device to take full advantage of an iOS device. iRCT shares the same proven accuracy and most features with RCT running on older platforms.
iRCT accommodates all experience levels, giving beginning tuners a very simple interface, but offers advanced tuners unlimited customizable stretch choices.
New for iRCT! New Concert Tune mode combines the best of Fine Tune and Smart Tune but customized for 7 and 9 foot concert instruments.
Faster and higher resolution spinner than has ever been possible with RCT before. We've taken full advantage of OpenGL and the Graphics Processing Units on iOS hardware.
Even small pitch changes are extraordinarily accurate and fast with iRCT.
The RCT "CyberCloud" automatically keeps iRCT calibrated to A440.0.
iRCT creates super-accurate tunings from low bass to high treble because careful and accurate multi- partial samples are taken from five or six notes (A1, A2, A3, A4, A5 and A6). All partials are automatically measured and recorded to a hundredth of a cent!
iRCT creates aural-quality tunings because it directly matches sampled partials - exactly what aural tuners do every day.
Small (and all scale-challenged) pianos never sounded better! iRCT automatically senses and compensates for short scaling in spinets, small grands, etc.
RCT tuning files can be imported from RCT Mac/Win or Pocket RCT via email or iTunes file share.
Super easy Historical Temperaments includes the ability to create your own custom temperaments. 114+ temperaments are built-in, add hundreds more custom temperaments from any source.
New! Study for the PTG RPT Exam, or brush up on your aural skills with the new Aural Tutor expert tuning system.
iRCT has several primary software components; Chameleon , CyberEar , Tuning Graph , PTG Exam scoring and Aural Tutor
Chameleon
Simple to use! Tap the Record button, and Chameleon indicates the note to play, then automatically measures and records.
New "Smart Partials" feature chooses the right partial for every piano! "Smart Partials" automatically chooses the optimal partial for each piano based on octave type feathering, partial loudness, inharmonicity and piano size among other factors. User can turn off Smart Partials feature in the rare case where the user needs more control.
It's easy to choose from ten stretch styles, from pure to very wide or RPT Exam style to emulate a PTG exam Master Tuning.
Want even simpler? RCT can automatically choose optimal stretch and partials.
Tap the Calculate button, and Chameleon creates an 88-note tuning in less than a second by directly matching partials - just like aural tuners do every day!
Auto-compensates for spinets and other "scale-challenged" pianos.
RCT is the only tuning device which can automatically adjust the overall stretch of the tuning to be opitmal for each piano.
