Many have asked how Pure Tuner does on not-so-good pianos.

Today I tuned a Cable-Nelson spinet made by Everett. I was pleased to  
find an Everett spinet, because it has been my experience that Everett  
spinets have the highest inharmonicity on the planet.

An audio file is at:

The recording follows the form set by the previous Steinway/ 
Bösendorfer recording:

Arpeggios, Chord of Nature progression, chromatic filled-in triple  
octave across entire keyboard, chromatic 12ths across entire keyboard,  
and finally some chromatic 3rds, 4ths, 5ths, and 6ths in the midrange.

The only software needed to play the audio file is a web browser and  
associated software that can play an MP3 file. Quicktime or the  
Windows Media Player should be fine. The audio file is large, over 5  
MB, so it will take some patience while it downloads.
