One of the biggest differences is the pitch raise program. As I understand, the SAT uses a flat 25% overpull calculation, which is too much in the bass and not enough in the treble. The RCT uses the optimum amount of overpull for each note from 12% to 38%. It also calculates into the equation the pitches of the last 5 notes. The results are very accurate. Both machines in skilled hands will keep your customers happy. The RCT removes alot of "sweat" from the process. Dave Bunch
