Furnace cycles can create problems for both aural and etd users. But since any competent etd user is also listening those cycles would come as no surprise and can be dealt with. While there may be some type A's who would worry about a 2 cent correction the majority (myself included) would not. One thing is certain, if you have an etd and the situation calls for you to turn it off you can. However if you don't have one and the situation calls for you to turn it on, you can't. From a guy who so adamantly criticizes soundboard making by the seat of the pants in favor of modern and calculated technologies, it surprises me to hear you so opposed to this one that has obvious advantages and really no disadvantages that I can think of save perhaps the cost. Even then, with the accumulated savings in time spent it will soon more than pay for itself. ------Original Message------ From: Ron Nossaman To: David Love To: pianotech at ptg.org Subject: Re: [pianotech] ETD tuning during temperature changes Sent: Jan 27, 2011 10:43 AM On 1/27/2011 12:21 PM, David Love wrote: > See my previous post about how etd users deal with it. I did. You talked about lights going on once and staying on, and that you don't experience cyclic changes with the heating system during tuning. My average tuning, and I expect John F's, doesn't involve stage lights, and the climate most certainly involves furnace cycles. > Also etd users don't sweat pianos that are 2 cents. That 2 cent thing came from an ETD user. I've never heard an aural tuner claim anything like that. Ron N David Love www.davidlovepianos.com (sent from bb)
