The tone of a piano can be improved by a process called voicing. The tone of all pianos will change over time. As the hammers strike the strings they wear and compact, causing the sound produced to become harsh or overly bright. Voicing can make a harsh tone more mellow, and can also make a weak tone stronger. Additionally, voicing can help even out notes that vary radically from their neighbors.

Your piano may benefit from voicing if:
  • Your piano sounds different than when it was purchased 
  • You don't like the sound even after it has been tuned
  • Tone varies radically from note to note
  • You cannot achieve a range of tone (mellow to bright) at different volumes
  • The piano does not allow you to play softly.​

If you are considering voicing for your piano, first, it should be tuned and regulated.  Most voicing procedures are long lasting, so give yourself some time to explore the sound of a new instrument before deciding to change.
