Terry Using my trusty SATIII, I can do a pitch raise of almost any size, by offsetting the machine at 25% higher than it is flat, to a maximum of 25 cents, raise the pitch, and when I measure A 440, about half the time I'm right at it, and the rest of the time within a beat. (4 cents). Works just about every time.

This thread is turning absurd! I thought the only piano techs who claimed super-accurate pitch raises were Cybertuner users. Now we have a SAT user that performs pitch raises in one pass to "usually well within 1 cent" - and can this include one-pass pitch raises of 125 cents?!?!?!?!?!?!?! Before I go on about the implausibility of such feats, please instruct me to where I have misread/misunderstood the referenced post.s Then I'll go on...... ;-) Terry Farrell On Aug 28, 2009, at 7:19 PM, Larry Trischetta wrote: Dr. Sanderson told me 15 years ago to not be afraid of a 125 cent pitch raise being done in one pass. It seemed radical, but, (at least using the SAT), he was right. I’ve never done a pitch raise without the SAT and it amazes me how close the pitch drops down to the “correct” note...usually well within 1 cent.
