Pedal bounce

2016-01-28 by carl schmidt

Hi All,  
After successfully connecting my disklavier to record midi on my pc,  I have found a strange thing happening with the pedal input.  
Instead of recording one clear 'pedal down'  event it seems to detect around 7 'pedal down'  movements.   I have read somewhere that it's called pedal bounce... (? ) 
Is there any reason why this would happen?  It creates a lot of confusion and complication when rendering midi files to virtual piano ...
Is there a way to rectify this? 
Many thanks...

Good evening, everyone.

Carl, am I correct that you are recording multiple messages for controller 64 (sustain pedal) each time you move the pedal? If so, are the values various numbers between 0 and 127?

It is normal for a Disklavier to generate incremental pedal messages that describe various positions of the pedal between fully up and fully down. A value of 0 = fully up and a value of 127 = fully down.

if your virtual piano software does not like incremental pedal events, i 
have a program that will convert them to on and off events only. you can 
choose the on and off thresholds separately.
