I don't believe this is true - you might look up the discussion from a while back on inharmonicity changing as the soundboard stiffness changes due to moisture, and also due to voicing changes due to moisture. Voicing itself will change the weighting of the partials, and therefore might change which partials you decide to favor. If you're talking splitting gnat's hairs, I think these effects might be larger than your measurement and computational tolerances. Bob Davis
