[pianotech] tunelab vs verituner

[Don Mannino]

This is shaping up to be quite the year of the tablet, and these are going
to increase a LOT in the fall.  I have been tuning with an Asus 12" tablet
(EP-121) computer for a little over a year now, and really love it.  Very
fast, and runs all of my usual software very well.

I used to use the Ipaqs, then went back to using laptops. A little Netbook
can be purchased for $250 and it is handy as a shirt pocket. I switched from
the Netbook to a Toshiba Portege last year. I absolutely love it. It is
extremely light weight, fits into my Duluth tool case, has 5-8 hour battery
life, heavy duty computing power, about a 13.5 in screen, very rugged case.
I really like having all my computing power and files with me all the time.
I use ACT! for my contact management so having my laptop gives me access to
all my customer info on site.

That may change. I just upgraded to a Droid phone and I am really liking it.
If I can figure out a good way to use Google contacts to manage my
customers, I will probably go back to using a netbook with Tunelab. 

I, too, love, love, love the muteless pitch raise I can do with Tunelab. And
the analog graph at the bottom makes tuning the upper unisons with false
beats a breeze. The lack of software lock is also a huge bonus.

Seems like my ipaq is about to give up the ghost.  I've been using Tunelab
for years (Cybertuner before that) and am interested in Verituner to round
out the trinity of the big 3 in software.  I think I'd miss the option of
doing the muteless pitchraise that Tunelab gives me.  Any thoughts or
opinions from anyone who  has both?
Thanks,
