>Is it another symptom of incorrect leverage if you have a piano in >good regulation, with hammers correctly bored, but the dip is too >deep? To have 1 3/4" blow and .025"aftertouch, the dip has to be >over .400". Vince, Excessive dip is associated with actions that have a strike ratio of 5.0 or less or: with actions in which the capstan contact point is significantly out of alignment with the wip-center to key-balance-point. A question for you. How do you set dip/aftertouch? With your method is there any leeway? I mean could you shave a little off the 0.025" and still have an eensy weensy bit of aftertouch? I've heard it said that this minimal aftertouch is common in Europe. David Stanwood
