I am confused or perhaps have confused you all.
The sound goes away when I let go the key. Thus, to me, the damper works in killing the sound.

This pitching sound comes at the middle part of the note playing and the most noticeable at the finishing ( while I'm still depressed the key)

Perhaps, can someone direct me the link on how to upload a sound so can share with you all. Note: I only have a phone to record, hope that will be ok. Oh wait how about a video recording? If that will work, can someone share with me how to upload a video? I don't have an account with youtube or anything like that.

Much appreciate


Could be the damper that lightly touch a string, sending a partial or a noise before damping the tone.

I have the first two trichords on my 52" upright fitted with pieces of plastic between the strings on the section between the tuning pins and the cappo bar - I do not have agaffs.
For the lower (D sharp 3), it was because with the strings too close together there was a ring from the speaking lengths.
For the next it was because there was a ring from the non-speaking lengths.

a small piece of rubber is used generally (or a small piece of hard felt, but erasers are easy to find)

The NSL that create rings sometime is on the opposite side, generally damped all along on uprights, not on grands when there are aliquot/duplexes back scales. then all the bottom of the long bridge is damped , sometime not high enough in the scale then ones that are too audible have to be damped later (rings can appear after some time).
