size=2>> Yesterday, I spent some time with a Kawai Console, doing =
some
voicing and<BR>> tracking down rattles, buzzes, zings and, (to quote =
the
client), "a rubber<BR>> band sound". She even went and got a large =
rubber
band to demonstrate!<G><BR>> The sound emits from F69, which is =
the
first note w/o a damper. At first, I<BR>> thought she was referring =
to the
sustain, but on closer listening, sure<BR>> enough, there is a sound =
that
sounds like a rubber band, under tension,<BR>> being plucked! Danged =
if'n I
could isolate where it was coming from! Truly<BR>> frustrating. Have =
any of
y'all heard such a sound? It's a new one on me and<BR>> I would =
really like
to solve the problem, if possible. Feedback<BR>>
appreciated!<G><BR>> Best Regards,<BR>> Joe Garrett, RPT,
