v.17
Here are the steps you need to do, to submit your F#3 and A#3 for marking.
All notes must be open unisons, no mutes, unless strings have been eliminated.
- Tune F#3 and A#3 using whatever system you want.
Start the recording. - Indicate whether any strings have been eliminated due to false beats. (You must use the false beat elimination procedure.)
- Say which scale your piano has, i.e. which scale you are tuning your piano to; small, medium, or large. If you don’t know, just say “I don’t know what scale my piano is.”
- Play F#3 and A#3 individually, softly, 3 seconds each.
- Play F#3 and A#3, 3 times very loud.
- Then play again, F#3 and A#3 individually, softly, 3 seconds each.
- Now play F3, F#3, A3, A#3, C#4, D4, F4, and A4 individually, softly, 3 seconds each.
- Play A3-C#4, F#3-A3, and C#4-F4.
- Play C#4-F4, A#3-C#4, and F4-A4.
- Play F3-A3, F#3-A#3, and F3-D4.
- Play A3-C#4, A#3-D4, and F#3-A3.
If at this point any notes do not pass the stability test according to your ears, use the stability troubleshooting procedure to retune them and start the recording over at step 4.
