Recording studio, cool in morning, piano in tune with ETD. Lights, lots of action, studio gets warmer, piano shifts just a cent or two ... and some unisons get banged out enough that all three strings are different places, though not by much. ETD wants to put them exactly where they were in the early morning, but two or three tracks recorded right around lunch time are at the shifted pitch already. Maybe someone who has done recordings can weight in? I get the feeling Israel has done this? Susan
