[CAUT] Adams 1/4 tone sharp piano

[Wolfley, Eric (wolfleel)]

Now that would make more sense, wouldn't it? It wouldn't be the same
though without the piano technician's angst added in. It's the thought
that counts.

Alan, in answer to your question about how sharp I would tune I would
say 50 cents! It wouldn't make any sense to de-tune more...a semitone is
just a transposition. Any less or more than a quarter-tone (sharp or
flat) would diminish the effect.

 

 

 

Ok, here's a suggestion that sounds like a dumb southerner might
suggest, that should reduce risk of all this.

 

How about LOWERING the pitch 50 cents and transposing 1/2 step sharp?
