Hi all,

A few times it was mentioned that A at 444 Hz would present brighter 3rds
compared to those at A=440. With all other things being equal (same piano,
tech, temperament etc.) what would be the difference of say F3-A3 major 3rd
in both cases? You whiz techs with the electronic equipment should be able
to come up with an answer to this. My gut feeling is.........*negligible*.
Am I right or wrong?
