[pianotech] Temperaments...again

[David Love]

Depends which keys you play in.  The purer thirds in the keys of C, F, G,
even the 2# and 2b keys make those sound a bit "cleaner".  The outer keys
however, more like a bad singer with a sore throat trying to make an
artificial vibrato...okay, maybe a bit strong.

Because you want it to sound better, therefore it does.   For me...it
doesn't
