This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Thank you, Bradley. My mentor started me with a C fork (523.3). I have checked to see if = the paino was at A440 with an A fork when I finished the tuning, and = found that A matches the A fork. About 15 years ago an artist made me = very nervous about pitch when he placed an electronic keyboard on top of = the piano (Baldwin SF 10) I had tuned for him, and would play the piano = with one hand and the keyboard with the other. After the performance we = met and talked briefly. His comments about the tuning were very = encouraging and since then have seldom checked to see if my work is at = A440 after tuning to the C fork. I've never had to go back and retune a = piano because the pitch was incorrect. I didn't understand the math = behind the pitch. ----- Original Message -----=20 From: Bradley M.

It sounds = like you are looking for the specific numbers. What is the frequency of = your C fork? If it is 523 then your A4 would be 439.79 (-0.83 cents) If it is 524 then your A4 would be 440.63 (+2.48 cents) [C5 523.3 would put you right about on A4 440] Bradley M.
