Hi, some information,
in your opinion, is it "normal" if in a grand piano's repetition mechanism some hammers are higher than others in the resting position, that is, without pressing the key?
Thank you

needs regulation

So in theory they should all be aligned, if regulated well! Right?
It feels strange to me that it's only the black keys!
Are they aligned by recording the pilot between the key and the capstan?
Thank you

I am happy to suggest solutions. However, I emphasize that suggestions are not enough and often DIY is not appropriate. The piano is an instrument that is not complicated but complex, and all interventions are interdependent in order to achieve a good final result. Applying measures and adjustments literally does not always yield a good final "whole."
Therefore, the advice on this forum does not replace the intervention of a "good" technician, who will know how to evaluate the most appropriate things to do

Good morning.
I agree with pianoexpert regarding the risk of DIY... Intervening without experience on the regulation of the repetition lever could make the situation worse, especially on a grand :).
Does anyone know if this height difference also affects the key response?
Thanks to whoever chooses to respond
