>>from Rand Reeves: >> >>A local recording studio called me in to look at a problem they've been >>having with a Kawai GS-40 with excessive damper noise when the pedal is >>engaged. I have not tried this yet myself, but sometime back I discussed exactly the same problem with some other technicians. A suggestion at that time was to bend the damper head so that the front and back of the damper did not contact the string at the same time upon return to the string. I don't know that it would work, but it makes sense to me that it should make the swoosh less noticable. Ward Guthrie, RPT Bozeman, MT
