Great video! Some of the most humid places I’ve been while working on pianos in Houston have been schools and large buildings that have commercial HVAC systems. I don’t think they pull the moisture out of the air. I’ve been in some freezing cold school theaters with nearly 70% humidity, and mold growing on the curtains
Yeah. Occasional music here and there is fine, but when doing anything where you hear the pianos in the room (even when listening isn’t the goal) it’s distracting and tiring to always have it there.
Try moving the action twords the key slip. The tight tolerance to the fallboard and the low energy attack in the high treble indicate an inappropriate strike point.
@the_daily_ping Doping felt prior to a thorough 'pre-voicing procedure, to include impeccably clean unisons and a fine regulation is amateur. Your decision to add hardner was made on your ride to the venue. ruining hammers 101
I use a Vizio Xr6m10 tablet TV remote. It’s got a nice big screen and is pretty cheap on eBay. For tuning apps is use PianoMeter and Tunelab. Thanks for watching.
You can actually use this to your advantage. Dissolved in acetone, the b72 travels towards the surface. Dissolved in Everclear, the b72 doesn’t travel back.
@@Hammondbrass thanks for the tip. I’ve only been using alcohol with different amounts of B-72 for different strengths. I’ll have to mix some up with acetone to have on hand.
Man, as soon as you moved to the C7… incredible sound.
I always enjoy your informative videos. I always pickup some good pointers. Many thanks!

There are plenty of youtube piano "technicians" who just lubricate joints and do not solve the problem like you do. Good job
Thanks for watching. Tight centers is a big problem in Miami. Sometimes I have to go nuclear with water and alcohol or even Ballistol oil.
3:10 the background piano music is very distracting (I assume its in the edit)
The background music in general is extremely distracting
I agree. I am a totally blind individual and I like to listen to what he is doing. The music is very distracting. It takes away from the video.

If you had actually taken the time to listen to what I said in the video you'd see that I already did that exact thing. Thanks for watching.

@@beethovensgmy take was that he was hoping to use it/predicted he might need it, but wasn’t immediately set on it.
Hello. What brand and model is the tuner you use in the video? Thanks

B-72 is the best! But it’s recommended to dissolve in Alcohol like everclear and not acetone due to transmigration caused during the drying process.

Yeah, I use alcohol when I’m trying to get it in the core and I usually travel with the acetone for more attack and faster drying.

@@edwardsnz hey, no problem! I usually go in through the side, just under the crown, with alcohol B72 to add power but not attack.
@@Hammondbrass did you go to Northwestern? You look familiar.
