Excerpt from Voice Production and Analysis The Hang-tint of instruments is controlled in various ways, according to the method of tone production. For example, in the piano the main factors are the length and weight of the string, the hardness and shape of the hammer, the sharpness of the blow, and the distance of the point struck from the end of the string. To these may be added the resonant qualities of the frame and sounding-board. But when the piano is finished, its tone, its [dang-tint, is determined; the performer can do very little to change the Hang-tint of a tone without at the same time varying its intensity.
