I hope someone can help me with this. Steinway B made in 1979. Whenever the sostenuto pedal is depressed, I hear a thump, and I will see several dampers jump, most notably damper A#3. After much hairpulling and trying moving the sostenuto rail in and out, which changed nothing, I eventually discovered that by pulling the action out a smidgin (?) the thing would work fine. So I blocked the action out a little at the keyframe stop (dag?), which seemed to solve the problem. But I never really figured out what was happening here. Do you know? Is there a better way to solve the problem? I live in the fear that during Sunday's competition something will happen that will have the whole world mad at me for all time. Please advise. Thanks!
