Many years back a customer gave me a tape cassette he had received as part of a DIY "piano tuning" course. On it were recordings of every note played on a rather poorly tuned piano-sounded like it was coming from an old upright-and all the student needed to do was tune every string in the piano to match these tones. I think he got it from an ad in an old Mechanics Illustrated or Popular Science magazine.

You just simply matched the piano to the record! -- Ryan Sowers, RPT Puget Sound Chapter Olympia, WA www.pianova.net -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
