Re: [disklavier] Self-calibration

2004-10-02 by Robert Welcyng

To add to Carol's note, the "self-calibration" affects only the 
Disklavier's recording and playback features, not how the standalone 
piano plays manually from the keyboard.  Your tech probably first spent 
time, in addition to tuning, to insuring acoustic regulation--that is, 
making sure that the keyboard and pedals were adjusted and properly 
operating.

A state of acoustic regulation is a prerequisite for the service done 
using the Test and Maintenance Modes.  That may be another good reason 
for Disklavier owners not to dive into those modes, even if they know 
how to.
