@88tuner on Yamaha kind of grand the tuning hammer can be hold that position, which add amax twisting to the pin before it moves, but in the end I prefer to use a more direct method (12:00 14:00) so I master the level of twist I have in the tuning pin (way less in a Japanese softer tuning pin than in a German one, which can be loaded as a spring in a more evident way)

On a nice tuning, the more notes are tuned the more they react each other, so in the end the piano own resonance is higher. This effect can be heard and felt while tuning.On one side you have atuning "model" on the other the piano's own "justness" and resonance. In the middle, the tuner and his sensibility to both.

@88tuner Bend the hammer can be done with control (minimally) untwist ("uncharge") the tuning pin before charging it again is what makes the tone lively and what gives the opportunity to have the same "charge" of the pin each string.Some pianos need harder strokes than others. Slow pull give utmost control to any piano. (but experience is necessary)

On the first notes you tune the tuning pin setting is not even changed, you are not feeling what you do to them. You can get to some justness but it cannot stand a concert player.

I used that RCT software for years, in the end it makes me avoid real tuning pin setting, as you are doing on that video (because of what your eyes are asking) All those middle octaves are dull to me... .because of the software one is afraid to manipulate the tuning pin enough, thats how I feel it (I've done that ...)

There are many different hammer techniques used when tuning a piano. Both a 'smooth' technique and a 'jerk' technique can be effective; and it can vary from piano to piano.

I am currently taking a piano tuning course and I have a question. Why does this guy move the lever in one stroke, but the tuner that tunes the pianos in my school moves it sort of like a rachet wrench, jerking it. Which way is Correct?

ahhh forgot to say he is tuning a Grotrian with a very long string way from pin to first pressure bar..Grotrians are infamous for this..he is also pussy footing about with the notes...he has to give them a good belt to excite whole string!
