Re: [disklavier] Re: the note is F on DC3M4t

2005-07-05 by Bob Colopy

It did its random note thing again this holiday so I rebooted it and left 
it on - connected through a surge protector (still plan to buy a UPS once 
there is consensus on the technical requirements to protect from 
lightning). There was no problem - as long as you left it on and simply 
woke it up when ready to play. BTW, I was wrong, it was not "F" but "F#" 
below middle C. Also, I don't think it has anything to do with 
recalibration. It is the only note misbehaving.
