This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment Tuned a piano at a church in Plains last week. I was extremely satisfied with the results (they turn the HVAC off all week and it hadn't been tuned in a week). Tonight after church the pianist mentioned to me how much better it sounded, but commented that one note sounded "funny". Initially, I didn't hear the problem... (I think because the strings are definately in tune and I was listening for beats). But after a few moments I detected what she is talking about. When you first hit the key, it quickly goes "eee-ahhh". Every other note just says "ahh" (yeah, I know this sounds stupid, but I can't think of any other way to describe it). It happens very quickly and is almost undetectable, but SHE noticed it, so it is now important to me. It's like the note has two syllables instead of just one pure syllable. It quickly gets to the ahhh... and there are no further beats in the tone when played by itself or when checking octaves so I don't think it's what we would normally call a false beat. Sorry if this doesn't explain things properly... but does anyone have any suggestions of things I should check? I don't know where to start.
