Voicing Technique

[Tom Servinsky]

To me concert level voicing is very analogous to \achieving a beautifully
manicured golf course green prepared especially, say for the Masters Golf
Tournament at Augusta on a given day.

Sure Dale... but just what do you want me to clarify ?

I suppose its the bit about how long a voicing lasts ???. If
so I can say that I have seen the results of two people who
I classify as voicing specialists, or masters. They are
exceptional at creating the sound they want, and both get
results that last a good deal longer then the length of a
concert.

That being said, 40 hours or so of such use will really be
noticable, but I wouldnt go so far as to say the voicing is
completely going even by then.. actually far from it.

I suppose its a bit relative... somewhat like a concert
tuning. A very stable tuning in a good climate will survive
a concert quite well. And can even survive a weeks use quite
well, but for sure as time goes on you will increasingly
notice a change.

Is this what you were after.
