## What is CyberTuner?

Reyburn CyberTuner, the pro piano technician's gold standard tuning software for over 30 years. Continuously refined through three decades of professional feedback from master piano technicians.
This is a professional piano technicians' tuning tool. We expect users to already know piano tuning basics and have their own tuning equipment.
What makes Reyburn CyberTuner for iOS (or "iRCT") superior to other tuning software? Ease of use. Clarity of functions. Intuitive and thoughtful design and programming by a Registered Piano Technician (RPT) member of the PTG with years of concert tuning and prep experience as well as "in the trenches" home tunings and repairs. Built on the collective knowledge of scores of RPTs. Flexibility to tune the way you want with unbelievable accuracy. Support by the creator, by either personal email (international) or toll-free phone (in the US & Canada) for registered users. Email listserv support is free for registered CyberTuner users.
	•	Concert Tune mode combines the best of Fine Tune and Smart Tune, customized for 7 foot (210cm) and 9 foot (275cm) concert instruments.
	•	Aural Tutor expert system analyzes your aural tuning and suggests intervals and check notes for improving your aural skills.
	•	Extraordinarily accurate and fast pitch correction with iRCT's Smart Tune and Pitch Raise modes. These modes use a US Patented expert system to individually predict every note on the piano.
	•	iRCT creates aural-quality tunings by directly matching sampled partials, just as concert aural tuners do.
	•	iRCT accommodates all experience levels, giving beginning tuners a very simple interface, but offers advanced tuners customizable stretch choices.
	•	iRCT is an "expert system" which automatically senses and compensates for short scaling in spinets, small grands, etc.
	•	iRCT creates musical tunings from low bass to high treble because accurate multi-partial samples (to .01¢) are taken across a wide array of sample notes (A1, A2, A3, A4, A5 and A6).
	•	Fast, high-resolution spinner provides unsurpassed stability and unisons.
	•	New: Apple Metal graphics framework for improved battery life and responsiveness.
	•	New: CyberAssist built-in tech support provides instant answers 24/7.
	•	New: iCloud Sync with merge files feature keeps your files safe.
	•	New: CyberEar AI Mode creates tunings which challenge even the best aural tuners.
	•	Occasional internet connection (approximately once a month) required to calibrate A440.
An iRCT license includes Standard Mode (ability to tune a 13 note temperament from A3 to A4) plus a FREE one (1) year subscription to CyberCare which upgrades the mode to Premium (tune 88 notes). Also included with a CyberCare subscription are free upgrades to any new iRCT features, CyberCloud calibration, and support. See "In-App Purchases" for CyberCare price in local currency. If your CyberCare Subscription lapses, iRCT will continue to function in original Standard mode.
In subsequent years CyberCare one year subscriptions may be purchased in-app with automatic renewal option:
	•	Payment will be charged to iTunes Account at confirmation of purchase.
	•	Subscription automatically renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24-hours before the end of the current period.
	•	Account will be charged for renewal within 24-hours prior to the end of the current period.
	•	Subscriptions may be managed and auto-renewal may be turned off by going to the user's Account Settings after purchase.
The iRCT software includes a single user license. iRCT may be used to tune pianos (or any keyboard instrument) on only one iOS device at a time, but may be installed on multiple iOS devices.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE WITH THE EULA TERMS, DO NOT PURCHASE A CYBERTUNER LICENSE.

### 5/5 — One of the most full featured, customizable and reliable tuning assistants.

*2026-06-08*

It enables my Tenitus bound hearing - a ring like the sustaining C8, to be guided to accurate representations of any pleasing tuning stretch possible. I was taught using this by very astute teachers. I benefitted from that, but this software allows what if I had to ghost every partial it would be really reckless and overly long. This enables my tunings accurate through multiple passes throughout the instrument and at least at a professional result.

### 5/5 — Glad I finally switched

*2025-04-22*

I’ve been very happy with the app!

### 5/5 — Only App For Piano Tuning

*2025-03-20*

If you want the best result in one sitting, this is the app.

### 2/5 — A bit outdated

*2024-07-09*

File system is antiquated, clumsy and time consuming. Takes too long to sample notes compared to other tuning apps. Automatic note switching is only for adjacent notes. Very overpriced app for older technology. Indicator blushing occurs over a wide range of pitch, not as precise as other apps.  Have to clean up break by ear or use the time consuming AI mode which sometimes doesn’t always do a good job compared to other apps. If you don’t have strong aural tuning skills you’d be better suited with another app that doesn’t require as much clean up of the tuning. Pitch raising is only based on nearby sample notes. It doesn’t take in account what is coming after, only the notes that have come before. Very unreliable.

### 5/5 — Good

*2023-12-11, version 8.5.7*

This is a good app

### 5/5 — 😁👍

*2022-12-14, version 8.5.2*

Treadwas is Treads and Treadwa

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2022-01-27*

FINALLY--string section/break parameters are saved for each tuning record (right in the tuning file) and are recalled and entered automatically each time a tuning is selected in Smart Tune mode (and Pitch Raise also). Piano tuning is tedious enough ☺️ iRCT is a remarkable product in so many ways, and I sure don't miss the old Pocket PC/Pocket RCT, or Sanderson Accutuner, for that matter. But the CyberCare subscription for $80 every year may be debatable, especially given the $1,000 original purchase price and the limited number of updates and feature additions. Besides, just how many truly useful features can even be added to specialized software like this over time, or routine software maintenance, for that matter?

### 5/5 — This thing is priceless!

*2021-07-04*

My only request is to make it easier to move around the tuning files, such as adopting the “Files” interface and making it possible to move them around that way, instead of emailing etc. 

I’m happy to pay the $80 per year to ensure that this app continues to exist and to get regular bug updates. 

Thank you!!!

### 5/5 — Absolutely Fantastic!

*2021-04-26*

This is *the* app for professional technicians. I had used it to do a pitch-raise of over 200 cents, and landed within 10 cents across the whole keyboard. The Smart Tune setting is well worth the pric3.

### 5/5 — Worth every penny

*2021-01-06, version 7.9.7*

Courteous developers.  Impeccable user design.  Sturdy, reliable tool.
