      Modern electronic pianos are light years ahead of the paper-scroll-driven \u201cplayer pianos\u201d of yore.\u00a0 You can play them yourself manually like any regular piano, of course.\u00a0 Or sophisticated computer hardware and software can mechanically reproduce performances of the finest pianists expertly playing the world\u2019s great piano literature.\u00a0 Until something goes wrong\u2026.<\/p>\n

      For example, in August 2019:<\/p>\n

      Toale Brothers Funeral Home in Sarasota had bought a gorgeous $20,000 Yamaha electronic grand piano for their premier location to play soothing classical background music during funeral visitations and services.\u00a0 But the piano output was impossibly loud and strident, with no way for them to turn the volume down.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

      The distributor who\u2019d sold them the piano had subsequently left the area and there was no knowledgeable Yamaha technician capable of fixing their $20,000 albatross.\u00a0 So it sat there idle for six months until Tracy was called in.<\/p>\n

      It turned out the electronic\/mechanical action of all 88 keys had to be individually recalibrated and the computer system reset, then the acoustical tuning brought back into perfect pitch.\u00a0 The net, end result: The clients were ecstatic\u00a0\u2014 thanks to Tracy \u2014 to finally be able to use their magnificent Yamaha piano for its intended business purpose.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
