And can you alter the ovality of the thing relative to the pedals? Best way I can describe is it’s like having an extra ring on the rear - ie you can shift in to the last ring on the back a bit later than usual. Not sure you can change the oval dimensions though, the folks at Absolute black have done heaps of work to get an optimum design without it feeling to “odd”. Make sure you get the right type for your group set if you go down that route 😎 Yamaha CLP-775 Quote There’s nothing remarkable about it. All one has to do is hit the right keys at the right time and the instrument plays itself. Johann Sebastian Bach

And you need to get used to it. Initially it caused strange sensations for me, and I switched back to conventional cogs. Last edited by VladK; 11/08/20 06:16 PM.

The stand keeps the noise of the piano local to the player; it does not disturb my missus next door watching tele. I can have it as loud as I like without problems. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1oZ5BQ-ms8w1_0jUROpZRHqwULR4rsFKy/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/file/d/1erxx5TgMwx9ntq7nxOOad0RdqmFa3_IE/view?usp=sharing Last edited by peterws; 11/10/20 04:45 AM.

The 'build crew' AKA the poodles provided "skin hydration services" (licking me when I was on my back putting the thing together). lol. Very helpful!
