hammer steam voicing

[John M. Formsma]

Hi Roger,

Some questions about the steam voicing.

Does the steam voicing effect last very long, or does it only affect the
tone for a short time?

In connection with the first question, have you determined whether the steam
physically alters the wool in the hammer?

Thanks,

P.S.  I'm going to try the steam voicing next month on a newish Wurlitzer
console with an awfully bright tone.  I'm curious to see how it will affect
it.
