They advised me that the studio piano will not be played alone, only with the grand. I have no idea what selections they will play and am inclined to do a FAC tuning on the grand and use the same numbers for the studio. Does anyone think this will not work out OK? Any other ideas? Ted Simmons >> My advice would be to tune each piano by itself, just making sure both are at A440. Tuning a Baldwin studio the same as a concert grand will make it sound out of tune, and vise a versa. The slight differences there would be on a key to key comparison, overall, during actual playing, the audience will not hear any difference. Willem
