[CAUT] P-12ths was: Tuning a Steinway D and aBosendorfer Imperial together

[Kent Swafford]

Another ETD. I have tuned dozens (at least) of pianos with PureTuner  
and RCT sitting side by side. I would calculate my normal tuning with  
RCT and compare note by note with PureTuner. The differences were  
surprisingly large in some cases.
