I'll jump in here for a minute ........ I've not read all the responses but ........... Synthesized frequencies are generated mathematically. One frequency is divided into 12 top octave notes and those are then cut in half for each octave below. A nicely tuned piano has stretched octaves in the treble defying mathematics. An electronic keyboard is stable as hell against an acoustic piano that drifts all over the place with air currents drifting about the room. To expect an electronic keyboard to be exactly in tune with an acoustic piano is an insult by me. Hiding that part of me in the trunk of my car parked at the curb, I try to impress on the customer that their expectations are unreasonable and that I will never try to match an electronically synthesized tone source with an acoustic piano made of materials that expand and contract daily. I can get it close but not beat free across the board. Lar -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
