<DIV>Greetings, </DIV>

<DIV>
There is a way you can globally adjust the balance rail to make more
aftertouch. At least that is what I did on a BAldwin Hamilton recently. There
are 4 or 5 screws across the balance rail, just under the b flats that
adjust the entire balance rail's height, then there are stabilizing screws in
between them, so that when you raise the balance rail you can then make the
alternate screws hold them there at the desired height. You
<EM>may</EM> not have to indivudually regulate. Get some more opinions on
this, as I only did it once in my whopping 3 1/2 years experience,
and probably am not explaining it as well as another can. </DIV>

<DIV>Julia,</DIV>
<DIV> Good tip, but this problem was described as not enough
aftertouch on the sharps. By raising the balance rail on this case, the
naturals would have excessive after touch in order to establish sufficient
aftertouch on the sharps. </DIV>
