CTE-Master Tuning

Am I missing something?  You expect a temperament to be good on a piano for
two years, ---in Houston?  Or are you saying that you have tuned the same
piano to the same machine file and now two years later you are hearing a
difference?   The master has been on the machine for two years, not on the
piano?

| Hi Ric,
|
| >How long are you talking about from tuning to change?
|
| We originally did the Master about 2+ yrs. ago but when giving tests, I'd
| never noticed any problem before. Yesterday, while giving it just a
| 'beginning of semester' tuning', was the first time I'd noticed
| anything different.
|
| The only difference that I know of is that we've had some unusually cold,
| dry weather (for Houston) the last week or so. It's actually gotten
| down to around 22 F. For here, that's cold. :-)
|
| In my shop, the humidity has also hovered around the mid to low 20's
since
| I've been back.

|
| The piano is in a teacher's studio, so there was no fan or hot light,
etc.
|
| Thanks,
| Avery
