Most of the notes in the mid to upper range have a high harmonic after-ring. Since the duplex is open from the mid-range up, I put some tape on it to see if that was the culprit. It had little effect. Finally, I taped off the speaking length of the notes above where the dampers end. The after-ring was totally gone. Obviously, I can't put stringing braid in the speaking length of the top octave and a half - any suggestions? I'm sure all pianos have some amount of this, but it seems particularly distracting on this piano. The piano doesn't seem overly bright - but would voicing it down a little be the only way to reduce the excitement of those upper open strings? Thanks for any help on this. Jeff Stickney, RPT University of Montana jpstickney@montanadsl.net Jeff, Aliquots usually cause this and may be taped. However your experiment indicates to me that a different stretch may change things.
