Mr. Hechler, I don't know you, and bear you no ill will, but I just want to say, in the spirit of Siblinghood: ELECTRONIC KEYBOARDS ARE HERE TO STAY – so get used to it !!!! Now I'll be sitting over here sipping my morning coffee, while I wait for you to get used to it . . .

Tuning unisons by ear is almost an after thought in the whole tuning process. In other words, although it is very important, it's basically a skill that' s expected to be known. And if you can't tune by ear, then don't pretend to be a piano tuner. There is nothing wrong with using an ETD, but it's only a tool to help you tune a piano, not a tool to do all the work. >> >> Wim >> >> Sent from my iPhone >> > > -- > Duaine Hechler > Piano, Player Piano, Pump Organ > Tuning, Servicing& Rebuilding > Reed Organ Society Member > Florissant, MO 63034 > (314) 838-5587 > dahechler at att.net > www.hechlerpianoandorgan.com > -- > Home& Business user of Linux - 11 years >
