Hi Robert, It is best to do a pitch correction first unless you have recently tuned the piano. Better results will occur from an approach that includes "unisons as you go" for both pitch correction and tuning. For the pitch correction pass do not bother with aural checks--just go as fast as possible and tune chromatically. (I.E. A0,A#0 etc.) On the tuning pass use the temperament of your choice, tune "to the lights" then do one aural check to confirm. If there is doubt try a different aural check to reconfirm and then "correct" using your ears. For extending the temperament to the rest of the piano--try various methods and find what works for you.
