    Excellent! Professional!
    I am a Registered Piano Technician in the PTG; I have been using Tunelab Pro for almost 10 years now, and have been extremely happy with it. I have tuned pianos at 3 universities, 2 symphonies, and many professional artists such as Emmanuel Ax and Jim Brickman. I have received had a single complaint related to stretch or temperament. The GUI on this app is fantastic and very easy to use. I highly recommend this for the professional piano technician. Show more

    Tune Lab Program
    I have been a piano technician for 32 years. I have only recently been experimenting with electronic tuning devices. Previously, I tuned only by ear. I really like the "Tune Lab" App. Looking forward to using it on a regular basis. Show more

    Great app!
    I love this app. I used it on my iPad to tune my piano and it was dead on. That being said, it needs better graphics and the ability to zoom a bit more so you can set the iPad further away and still see everything. But overall, it's excellent. Show more

    TuneLab
    To see the numbers while tuning is a dream come real. The most useful tool I have purchased

    Worth your money
    I've been an aural tuner for years. It took a bit to convince me to trust this, but I have to admit, my most satisfying tunings have come since using tunelab for iPhone. I'm impressed at it's comprehensiveness and simplicity. I'm also pleased how it doesn't seem to drain the battery too quickly like many other apps seem to. Be aware, this app will not improve your hammer technique, nor should you rely on it to lock in your unisons. If you are competent and confident in these areas, however, it could easily shave 20% off your typical tuning time. Be sure to read the users manual from the author's website. (I seemed to have problems viewing it in my iPhone, but read it just fine on my desktop.) Show more

    Ear tuner goes Tunelab!
    After tuning pianos for 35 years by ear, I finally decided to try Tunelab. I have several friends in the area that use Tunelab. I have followed their tunings. I find that the tunings are very accurate and smooth. Now that I have used Tunelab for a few months, I find that I am doing better tunings than I ever have. You can detect slight changes while you are tuning that you never would be able to detect by ear. The other day I was tuning a piano that was only about 5 cents flat. I tuned the temperament area (I still tune the temperament octave first) and tuned down and came back to check the temperament. I was surprised that the temperament had already shifted a bit. I wouldn't have noticed this slight shift if I was tuning by ear. And then I would have tuned all of the treble to the out of tune temperament! This program has proved invaluable in one other way. I have two 7' grand pianos that I tune sometimes every day for several days in a row. It is very helpful to be able to see exactly how the piano is shifting day to day. I usually let it drift a bit up or down (1 cent or so) but when it shifts too much I know that I have to retune the whole piano. It would be impossible to make these exact assessments by ear. Finally, I have found Robert Scott to be very helpful in answering my questions via email. In fact, I started asking for an iPhone app a year before he made it available. He has done a wonderful job with this software. I am sure I will be using it for the rest of my career. And as I get into my 60's and 70's and start to lose my high frequency hearing, I will depend on Tunelab to help me get those high notes in tune! Show more

    Great professional piano tuning app. Nice, clean, intuitive user controls. Simple to use and very powerful. Easy to measure the piano's inharmonicity and generate a nicely matched tuning. Do a pitch raise quickly without having to use (and keep moving) mutes. Well done! Show more

    This is one of the finest tuning programs on the market today. I have used this product since it first came out. It is amazing. The thought of being able to pitch raise a piano without mutes is amazing and an increadible time saver. That alone pays for it in time saved. Show more

    Piano tuner
    I have used Tune Lab on Pocket PC for more than 5 years as a full time piano tuner. I was excited to hear that it would become availably on the iPhone. Since I downloaded it I have used it on several pianos. It works very much like it does on the ppc. There are a few differences but nothing objectionable. I am glad to have it and I will probably use it exclusively from now on. Way to go Bob Scott! Show more
