I came across the following info, i was able to get whisper soft pianissimos out of the Pianocorder because I put the solenoids rails in the grand as close to the capstan line as possible. this means in front of the back rail and its felt. the solenoid rail must be dropped in order to regulate the piano action but the muscality of playing achieved makes it worth the extra trouble for the technician.

My pianocorder works great. It is just loud. I have had to adjust and change solenoids and adjust the outputs but it is still too loud.

When I bought my grand the piano corder it did not work. I have fixed it myself and I feel confortable working on it.

Please help me understand , as close to the capstan line as possible. My piano has quite a hole for the pianocorder and maybe it just needs to be adjusted front or back to soften the music. I would not be a big deal to move the solenoids front or back and then readjust each one for proper operation for softer music.

Where is this capstan Line?

thanks
