The SAT figure for C4 was 2.2 but read on the 6th octave. The exam program reads on the 5th octave. There are reasons for both but I actually prefer the Exam program partial selection. In order to "score" my temperament, I needed to estimate the value that the note C4 would have had being read on octave 5 but for your purposes. the 2.2 figure read on octave 6 is probably what you need. The Bosey figures did come out a little differently than other pianos although I was very satisfied with the results aurally. The customer wrote back again. Here is what she had to say: <<One of my "ultra-professional" musician friends heard the Bosey Sunday, and was rather stunned at the changes. And impressed; he liked them very much. (Not that it matters who is impressed or not; the piano is here to please me and my family.) My confidence in you was based on my intuition; I operate heavily on it. Yes, I read much of your website and related articles. In addition to the technical information, I was WELL entertained by the humor. Madison's culture of disagreement on just about everything always interests me, and you put it in its place! Ann C.>> There goes that word, "Stun" again as used to describe the effect of a tuning. I like it. So, now it appears that not only the Verituner can produce a "stunning" tuning, so can a SATII assisted aural tuning using the Direct Interval mode. I will be doing a recording session in a new studio here in Madison next week for a local avant-garde composer who is using two pianos. Also, a customer of mine will be doing a recording in his home in March on his Kawai KG-5C using the same recording engineer. So, I will have a couple of CD's soon from which I should be able to put samples of the EBVT on my website. Up to now, all I have are analog recordings on cassette which are far too warbly to be suitable.
