When I see the workshop of my piano technician here in Germany, where the master, two journeymen and two apprentices take care of my and other pianos, and how meticulously the work on the mechanics to get everything as close to perfection as possible, I somehow loose all interest in this computerized high speed manufacturing. Seeing that woman at 8:00 leveling the keys three times faster than any technicians in the shop here, I simply do not believe, that this piano is anywhere as well regulated. I am not sure if any of these workers really are piano technicians who can actually do all the stuff or if they are only trained to do one single task of the process - probably the second. Such a piano might be cheap. But I'm out.

The make a bracket for the front plate! Why ruin the bumper and drill holes in it? Just get the front plate bracket! Geeeessss!

Great work on this. Mike would be proud!

that's magnificent thank you

Nicely done.

Very nice thanks . Whats the piano. ?

Nice!

Great video Andrew !

That's beautiful. The notes sound as pure as a digital piano afterwards. Cool technique with the unisons. You sure dial them in quickly that way with the rocking back and forth. I'll try that.

That is kind of "Rough tuning" at first, then "Just tuning" but not concert tuning. No matter aural or software....

/0.9-2,21/- just beautiful Steinway s sound . From/10,53 and next/-sound of Yamaha. Why need change ?

I think these pianos must be Beethoven's 5th simphony proof.

Большая проблема в этой программы, что шаблоны темперации которые там имеются, они не подходят для настройки фортепиано. Интервалы в большой и контр октавах очень фальшиво звучат. Поэтому строй в этих октавах только по слуху нужно настраивать.

Wait till u see how they do it in Indonesia….

You not A pianotuner. This is not concert #tuner. Aural is the best

Very good workers..China is the factory of the world...

Cheap production & material = ultra bright, annoying & ear piercing piano sounds.

Tired of hearing about inferior quality and how there junk, it's the furthest from the Truth I guess if it doesn't have Steinway on it people think it's junk.

How do they stay sane?

sorry but they aren't worth to buy. buy proper piano unless it takes more. something I learned from books or lessons to regulate upright action didn't work with these.

I tuned my piano twice now. The first time it lasted about 3 weeks, and the second time it started to mildly go out of tune after a week. I always got good enough results but it is not lasting. I use piano meter.

Very productive workers for mass producing Piano.

Beautiful, thanks

Would NEVER buy a Chinese made piano. The craftsmanship is in no way close to American or European. The video proves this.

It would be the same to harmonize as to make chops.

The most boring thing I ever heard.

concert tuning with so bad tuning? funny.. Yeah it is no problem that he used the app, but he must check at least the octaves. I don understand how he doesn't worry about relation between tones at all..

its almost like the piano lost all its character hahahahahaha. great work.

07:20 This is the first time I have seen the making of piano keys. There aren't any anywhere else

Awesome!! Hope you are doing well my friend and God Bless!!🙏🏾😊

As my Mammy always said 'you get what you pay for'

How much did the whole set cost at Renner's? Greeting.

Doesn’t look very professional 😩😩

No coment.

Ótimo trabalho

I hope they give them hearing protection, have good ventilation so their work will not only pay a salary but protect so they can go home in evenings in good health

Useless.

I would have done a muteless pitch drop with TuneLabs - but that's just me.... Nice method! and good to hear someone take the time to do a good unison check!

I appreciate that the young chap playing the piano didn’t appear to be able to show any significant difference in its tone by his playing of Clare de Lune, it wouldn’t be my way to find out what the changes were by playing it loud all the time, where were any of the most basic dynamics? I remember speaking to one of the London Techs, and generally speaking, when a piano came into the shop it was set up and tuned, end of. They very rarely changed the tone of the piano, also, I was told that they/you shouldn’t ever apply hardening agent directly to the crown only on the different parts of the shoulder. I would agree with another contributor, if you want that sort of brash sound, you need to go look at some other make of piano.

Just go buy a c3 yamaha grand if want that sound.

Love the tuning and playing! I use TuneLab and check with my ear as I go. Highly encourage all tuners to use their ear

Just very poor tuning lever control, and horrible unisons, and zero stability.

Could use some narrative here

All pianos have no brands?

Steinway recommends using nitrocellulose lacquer, not acrylic. Do you have experience with both?

I don't care how pretty it is, how it sounds, how the keys feel, or which fake name is stenciled on it. I will never buy a chink-made excuse for a piano.

Trash pianos -- amazing workers

Imagine working in this noise factory 8 hours straight, and come back home to hear your children practice piano :D

This is equally amazing and terrifying.

Quick google search is saying that there is 40 MILLION Chinese Piano Students. 7 times the US. That requires a lot of Piano's. Given the wage difference, they need less expensive instruments. I'm glad the Chinese families have this as an option for them.
