[pianotech] Finger Cymbal Sounds

[allan at sutton.net]

In Andre's book, check Mating hammer and strings, p 65, and especially p 67
paragraph 2

Your three strings are not struck at the exact same moment and phase
cancellation occurs. Your filing has taken more away from one side of the
striking point surface.

Maybe?
