I provide tuning, voicing, regulation, repair and piano appraisal services within a thirty-mile radius of Raleigh.
I use both aural skills and advanced computer technology to deliver a quality tuning service. Tuning technology has progressed far beyond tuning forks or spinning wheels. State-of-the-art technology now includes a visual spectrum analysis of the note's wave form, making the wave shape, the phase relationship between strings, and the purity or distortion of a note visible. With this technology, I can easily change the normal 6:3 tuning in the bass to an 8:4 for a deeper sound (possibly desirable in a large grand) and change the normal 2:1 tuning in the treble to a 4:2 tuning for a brighter tone, while maintaining an offset if needed and still compensating for the piano's unique inharmonicity characteristics. I combine this technology with aural skills (listening to octaves, fourths, and fifths) to check my interpretation of the technology and fine-tune your piano.
