To the list.
My English may be poor in order to explain why I think that the middle =
strings are the=20
better in order to you do a temperament.
When you use a rubber to mute the right side string, you may use this =
mute rubber in two=20
directions:
1 =96 Put the rubber from right to left and the rubber will be behind =
the right side string or
2 =96 put the rubber from left to right and the rubber will be over the =
right side string.
      (to the left side string, change the directions)
 On the two cases the rubber forces the side string from or to the plate =
and the string will be=20
in a different plane from the middle string. YOU NEVER FORCE THE MIDDLE=20
STRING.
So the middle string will be always in the same plane and this is a very =
good condition!
My old German teacher said: always forces the side strings to the plate =
in order to maintain=20
the plane of the middle string  free from the plane of the side strings. =
( In some cases, if you=20
forces the side string from the plate, the plane of this string is in =
front of the plane of the=20
middle string and the hammer can=92t  to strike the string well!).
In all cases when you pull the mute rubber from the place where it was =
muting the string,=20
the string come to this original plane and....... MAY BE OUT OF TUNNING. =

Because of this, in some pianos the PAP=92S mute is very useful because =
it don/t forces the=20
side string to or from the plate. This is all.
I would like to read this in a very good English!
