Re: The right tone in unisons

I think the subject wasn't properly suggested...
Nowadays there is some piano tuning software and it's clear it isn't enough to follow the instructions but, is it possible to achieve a good tuning only with electronic Tuning device? ETD can replace a piano tuner or aural tuning?

Overdamper action in upright pianos

I have an upright piano by the early 1900's. It has a good sound, iron frame, spruce soundboard, ivory keys, etc. but it has a separate damper action mounted above the hammers, called an overdamper action.
My question is... can I change the action by modern action?
Thank you.
