@PlayerPianoFavorites That's great. I restored my piano in 2021. I was pumping the pedals at about the speed you're pumping them now, and the volume was quote low as well. Is yours a single or double valve player? If I could make any suggestions, slow your tempo down by maybe 5 or so. You'll get a little more volume out of the piano. When you say it's doing better now, I'm curious what you have done so far to improve or fix it? It's a beautiful piano and looks like you have a very nice collection of rolls.
@@SevenPlus65 I believe that it’s a single valve. I have not done too much to get more vacuum other than fiddle around. I don’t know why but the piano is requiring less vacuum.
@PlayerPianoFavorites Sometimes, just the fluctuation in temperature.....especially humidity.... can affect the way it plays. Keep your tracker bar clean. Do all of your expression buttons/ levers work? To me, it looks like you're really struggling for more vacuum pressure. If you'd like to see the amount of pedaling you should be doing (and if you're interested), look at my playlist. There's 1 video called piano restored. The man playing that is the man who restored it. He has regulated everything. Normally, you would play it faster to get volume, not for tempo speed. Anyway, watch his feet. You can see the way he's playing.
Pardon me boys,,,,, Bring back the Andrews Sisters!
Any plans to repair air leaks?
No, but the piano seems to be doing better.
I’m sorry, I didn’t read the full comment. I do have plans to repair all the leaks, but the piano is doing much better than it was.
