General audio topics that don't fit into specific categories.

I would also add that a truly relaibel test would require the player to be at the very least 'blind'

to which instrument they are using for each and every trial.

and, IF David Aitken is right, and I'm pretty sure he is about the distinctively right and encouraging feel of instruments, we may also have to isolate the players' sense of touch, and block their ears too!?

[I'm not an instrumentalist but I was trained as a cathedral chorister under the Royal Society of Church Music's programs, sang for 9 years straight. So, I can assure that it is the same for singers, we work very hard on getting to know and feel all the structures that can affect our sound and clarity. You can eventually just KNOW - to an eighth tone's level of certainty - what notes are possible on a given day, and why you're gonne be able to pull off, and NOT.]

So that they can't KNOW that this IS the BEST one, and thus play really well on it not only becuase it IS a good instrument, but partly because they are being affected by their emotions.

har har har!

Snap! wanna play anudder round!?
