Disklavier

Donal,

Thanks for your reply!

I think you have hit the nail on the head. Bottom line is it’s a piano not a stereo. They want to be able to stand next to the piano sitting on a hard tile floor with the lid fully up and have a conversation. 

I do still need to check the calibration. Are there directions for that in service manual?

Fred

My view is that all player pianos are too loud for a normal sitting room for background music when you have guests. Calibrate the piano for your customer to get the best low volume acoustic performance and tell them to use the digital piano with the silent system through a set of speakers so they can have a low volume as they need. Acoustic pianos make noise. In fact the pedals and keys moving are louder than the piano sound itself.

Regards

 

Donal

Hello All,

I have a customer with a 1 yr old E3 system complaining of playback volume being too high. This will be my first time visiting one and I would like to know if any of you have a few suggestions of what to look for.

Many thanks ahead of time for your replies.
