>I'm going to step out on a limb here, and decry your comment that the duplex >scale was developed to compensate for deficiencies in soundboard manufacture. Dan, No, not deficiencies in soundboard manufacture, deficiencies in soundboard performance, having nothing to do with how factory workers spend their time. It's a design issue, not a time motion study of employee efficiency. >( I'm trying to be humorous because I think you are being disrespectful, >albeit interested) > >Dan Franklin Sorry Dan, but I'm not apparently getting the humor, and I've never understood how the perception of respect or lack thereof has anything whatsoever to do with technical issues. I'll take some semblance of real information over the simulation of respect any day. I am also very quickly losing interest in this subject. I did ask if you could supply sustain times, before and after, so we could get an idea of what your claimed percentage of increase in sustain times with duplex scale tuning means in real world terms. Do you happen to have any such figures from your many years of detailed research? Ron N
