Frustrating Saturday

[Michael Gamble]

Hello Avery
I agree. I don't know either. Maybe the more nodal points which are covered, 
the greater the damping effect. This makes a bit of nonsense about 
shortening the felts then. But wait!... Maybe the requirement was for a 
certain amount of the partials to BE heard, to give a certain quality to 
that piano.  Just ruminating!
