This is a multi-part message in MIME format. ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment I have been trying to set the temperament on my piano and am having = trouble hearing the correct beat rates of the intervals. The problem is = that the beats are so weak they are hardly perceptible. I have strip = muted the piano and was able to tune A49 on the piano to the A440 tuning = fork by comparing the beat rate of the note and the fork with F21. I am = now trying to tune the other notes within the temperament octave and get = the beat rates of the F-A, A-C#, C#-F and F-A to gradually increase from = 7 bps to 14 bps, but they are very difficult to hear. What can be done = to hear the beats more clearly? I have been studying tuning for several = months now, but the beats of the intervals are still difficult to hear. = I don't have much trouble with unisons as I can hear the beats more = distinctly, and the improvement in the quality of the note when I reach = the pure state is very noticeable.=20 I have an SAT III tuning device that enables me to tune the piano very = well, and to check my aural tuning, but I want to be able to tune the = piano completely by ear so that I can eventually pass the PTG = examinations. Thank you for your help.=20 Robert Finley ---------------------- multipart/alternative attachment An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
