Moreover people are saying the Pianoteq pianos actually sound more realistic when the condition slider is set to a slightly detuned and aged position.

This an excellent tuner at an affordable price if you want to get into tuning acoustic pianos:

(I do not have a Peterson tuner, or obviously I would have tried one of these myself.)
