[pianotech] Disklavier Gone Wild

[David Love]

University setting.  There is a fair amount of pushing the envelope type
experimentation and sometimes things are hard to control that way.  I just
found it curious and didn't realize that the settings could be pushed up to
the point where that could happen.  I had tuned the piano for a concert only
a week or two before with a very modern program for which I had to alter the
tuning mid concert and no sign of any difficulty or stress.

That's the point. Do the repairs, charge what it takes to do so, attempt 
to educate them, and as long as they don't get the cause and effect 
relationship, repeat in perpetuity.

Most of what I try to do with my customers and other practitioners of 
the trade is out of my "area".
