<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Hello.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Why is it soo hard to accept that the =
thump of the
key hitting the key frame feeds back into the strings ? Was it =
before,
after, or while the hammer hits the string. So evident when you =
knock the
case with your finger (with right pedal depressed), the strings make a =
sound,
when you hit the case with your fist (= big finger with some meat =
around) it
makes another sound. Mix those sounds with the sound of any note =
played
the normal way, and you will have a clearly different acoustic result, =
even if
you focus on the part of the sound of the note that follows the
attack.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Am I missing something ? Nobody reacted =
on this
idea.</FONT></DIV>
