[pianotech] More fun with spinets

[Ron Koval]

"I'm finishing up work on on a 1941 Everett Spinet. I thought it would be
> fun to make a recording of it!"


 
Thanks for linking to that Ryan!  Very nice.
 
If you have the time, would you be willing to try an experiment?  Keep the tuning
from C4 to the top.  Tuning down from there, carefully balance only three intervals.
 
1. octave
2. double octave
3. octave + 5th
 
Try to make all three similar "pureness"
 
As you get down to the range where a guess is the best you can do, test by adding
the double octave +5th - play all 4 notes together and then softly drop in the lowest note
that you are tuning to see if it "hides" behind all the others being played.  
 
Another recording would then be appreciated, along with your impressions of tuning this
way and the differences from your standard spinet approach.
 
thanks!
