Hi Paul.
My understanding is that at present most folks reading pianotech and
caut subscribe to the idea that loose pins <<cause>> false beats in
pianos. Which as far as I can determine by direct observation of the
condition from several angles which isolate the condition in real pianos
is simply not true. I'm also aware that many believe that false beats
are caused by rust on strings, general termination problems, variations
in string thickness and density... etc. etc.
"I know of course this is at odds with the popular notion at
present.... but the data in front of me is just plain to
difficult to ignore."
Ric:
What, in your opinion, is the "popular notion at present..."---the
"loose pin theory"?
