Subject: [disklavier] Re: How loud is the player mechanism?

Thanks Jimmy for the info. The tech is coming over this week to
take a look. I hooked my PC up to the piano to drive the mechanism
so I could isolate the notes that are making the "clicking" noise.
There is a only a couple which are really loud and a few which are
less. However, these 8 notes are significantly louder than the
other 80! Also, the loudest one is the F below middle C which is
played a lot! SJ

you haverefer as the "clicking" or claping" noise that you hear when
the key is played by the mechanism. The first time, since my
disklavier was new (DCG1) he did a major over all to the keyboard
assembly. Kind of lubrication of the wooden attachment, (sorry for
my incorrect terms) they he realized that over all the noise was
still produce on some notes. He went back inside and interchanged
the pistons shaft from the the solenoid to other note.

came back on some note, just a few, but still very annoying. So
today he came back and changed all together the piston or shaft from
the noisy solenoid. Simply job and it appears to be efficency this
time hope it will last longer than a few months.
