Re: [disklavier] Pedal bounce

2016-02-01 by George F. Litterst

Good evening, everyone.

Carl, am I correct that you are recording multiple messages for controller 64 (sustain pedal) each time you move the pedal? If so, are the values various numbers between 0 and 127?

It is normal for a Disklavier to generate incremental pedal messages that describe various positions of the pedal between fully up and fully down. A value of 0 = fully up and a value of 127 = fully down.

Regards,
PianoBench
