There will be differences in the frequencies of the individual partials of every string, so that requires all other notes be tuned to account for those differences. Pianos are tuned individually, by any method, so that an exact duplicate of one piano tuning is not going to sound perfect on another piano. The strobotuner doesn't have the accuracy necessary to tune a piano properly without some aural help. The modern computer-driven devices available now have a much greater accuracy, enough to be able to tune a piano reasonably well without knowledge of aural tuning. They still require one to properly temper the octaves by ear, if you want to produce a good tuning. The strobotuner, and other devices from back then, were not designed to account for the inharmonicity of pianos.
PIANO STROBE TUNER PROFESSIONAL
If you would like to use one, there's no harm, but you'll need to hone your skills to become a professional using it. He may have a lot of experience using it to "get close" and then using his aural skills to complete the job. If your mentor likes and uses them, it is no slight against him. Of course, the strobe tuners are quite heavy. I think that there are a few modern models of strobe tuners that do have some of that capability, but they are not generally favored by most professional tuners because of their limited features compared to the software-driven devices. It is not possible without additional electronic calculations for a strobe tuner to tailor a tuning to a particular piano.
1) WHY were these tuners considered to be so GREAT back in the day, and 2) How do they measure up now? Because they are made with tubes I'm going to guess they're probably pretty heavy. He's also an engineer, so his knowledge goes well over my head at times, He is old school and will probably always be a hardcore analog advocate (he has a Chamberlin in his living room and another in his spare room for parts). We talk often about the new advancements in the trade and how things have changed over the years, and he still mentions these Conn Strobotuners.
