Ever have a clicking sound in the piano that you can't
find? Or, a note that just doesn't feel right even if the regulation is to spec?
This month, Ed Whitting will present a couple of programs to us -
1)
“10 pts. Troubleshooting a Vertical Action & 10 pts. Troubleshooting a Grand
Action”
2) "Starting, Mid-point and Stopping Pedals"
Why are pedals
heavy when everything is right? Why and how to change pedal ratios.
Why can a
damper tray lift point and a different key lift point be a benefit?
Also,
Ed requests that you read the "Maintenance Voicing" article by Mario Igrec in
this month's PTG Journal. He will be covering some points that relate to the
article.
Please feel free to invite a member we haven't seen in awhile or
even a non-member. It'll be good to hear how others juggle piano problems.
