To follow up on some "voicing" problems I reported earlier. Just to avoid any dis-information, I just want to let everyone know all the problems were the result of a very bad tuning. I just had an excellent tuner do an old-fashioned strip-tuning and some other tweaking here and there in octave 6 and 7, and now it sings its heart out. . . clear as a bell. . . better than ever. Thanks to the techs who offered their advice. (Rich, this was Bill Heiser. He worked out great.) BTW, the previous tuner used a Macintosh PowerBook and a very impressive-looking software system (don't know the name of the program). But the results were terrible. Temperament was "all over the place," according to second tuner (although there was a rather harsh break in the weather during the second tuning). George Gilliland (lowly musician) PS: Thanks to all who provided info on Harpsichord kits. ---------------------- Little Garden Design 134 Broad Street 2nd Floor Stroudsburg PA 18360 WEBSITE: <http://www.lgdnet.com> 717 422 1255 717 422 1257 (fax) ----------------------
