Hi Simone, congratulations on the work you've done. I am a pianist, repair technician, and also a tuner. I grew up with "key and tuner," moving from the Yamaha PT4 to the PT100, then to Tunelab, Cybertuner, and Verituner for 20 years. Only for the last 2 years have I also tuned by ear, but only for practice when a "guarantee" of stability is not necessary, such as during a concert, for example.

You have competently expressed notions unknown to most pianists and, unfortunately, even to tuners. I would like to know your opinion on other technical issues as well, for example, the definition of "touch" or phrases like "listen how the timbre changes without changing the volume." In over 20 years as a technician, and an equal number before that as a pianist, I have known truly few people who know how to distinguish tuning from intonation. I am very pleased that another one has been added. Well done, Simone

Hi Paolo, thank you for the positive words you spent on my work. I am well disposed to defining the other two sentences if you would be so kind as to communicate the timestamps where I say these things, and we can discuss them as much as you want because, as they are currently stated, several concepts come to mind. I would like to understand what I was referring to in that particular context.
