Just a question, If you relocate the capstan on the blacks only, you will have the contact point on the whippen heel changed, so what you gain one way you loose a tad the other. What happen to hammer and key travel now ? I just cant understand how you can expect to have an even touch with the capstan differently on white and blacks. The hammer acceleration will be different from key to key, is not it ? Regards.
