Hi all, I've been working tons on the D with the Steinway hammers that we previously blogged about last week. Regulation went flawlessly and plays like a dream after a full day of fine regulating in the piano after bench regulation as far as I wanted to go. Now, I've gotten into the voicing. Just a bit yesterday after regulating everything in the piano, so I basically just listened to the overall and juiced the top two octaves and the bottom 7 or 8 bass notes for bite and let it go at that. Today, the top is still very weak and the bass is pretty nice. I spent 4 hours in the middle and "middle" killer area and got a tone quality that I think will be quite nice. However, after 4 straight hours of poking, listening, poking, listening, poking and listening, I couldn't tell any longer what I was listening to. Have you all run into this situation? How long will you sit and voice at one sitting? I even took a break, plugged in a Rubenstein CD, checked out the Lied Center's D (that Steve Schmidt worked on last year)...just to give me reference, but on the 4th hour, I had to knock it off, juiced the top section a second time and called it a day on that. Thanks for inputs. Paul -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://ptg.org/pipermail/caut.php/attachments/20101019/c576d07d/attachment.htm>
