The D in our concert hall has a problem, at least as perceived by= one of our piano faculty and a musicologist. They differ on= where they hear the problem, but it seems to be the same sound= they hear. They describe it as a wave length that is very wide,= as opposed to a more focused wave. It is not so much a twangy= sound and it lack a certain amount of depth. They are even= leaning towards a soundboard problem. The piano is only 2 years= old. I have lacquered and voiced the hammers last year, and this= summer spent quite a bit of time leveling strings, making the= sure the hammer strike point is level, etc. All the usual fine= point. But I want to see what I can do to get more "focus" out= of the hammer. Thanks Wim ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
