On the false beat question. Rather than wondering if the ETD can 'read' it. Wouldn't it be better to try and get rid of the false beat?

I've used some of them with customers. I'm also going to try a little telemarketing as well, residential listings. I'll let everyone know how things went. I did test it one day, and a guy answered. I said my name and that I'm a piano technician in the area. He said I have a joke fo ryou. the one we've all heard about tuning a piano and not a fish. So I figured, this might be interesting, calling people. > > so I'm curious. I asked earlier, but I'm not sure if my question reached you guys yet. Can an ETD pick up on false beats, and if so how does it handle them? What does it do with the harmonics in the bass? > > That picture with the hammer on the Walter, could the hammer flange screw be loose, twisted shank as mentioned, loose hammer head, flange misspaced when the screw was tightened? > > Back to EDTs, I knew of a guy when I first started to explore piano technology back in 04 who used a Peterson. Man that thing was huge. Have you guys used those? When he pulled the thing out, I was like what on earthis this thing? It was larger than my coffee maker. > > One other thing. I've only been to one convention so far while attending the school, but when I join the PTG and it will be soon as soon as the funding arrives, I sure hope and pray that nonsense bickering like we've seen on this list doesn't happen there especially since these conventions cost money. I'll demand a refund. lol > Marshall > > > Marshall Gisondi Piano Technician > Marshall's Piano Service > pianotune05 at hotmail.com > 215-510-9400 > www.phillytuner.com > Graduate of The School of Piano Technology for the Blind www.pianotuningschool.org Vancouver, WA > > > > > > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
