I recently installed QRS's stop rail kit. I had no training other than the directions, which are being rewritten. so it took me much longer than expected. It works, though, and the customer is happy. Only very small letoff adjustments were needed. The new Story & Clark pianos come with the record strip and MIDI output pre-installed, so with the stop rail you can connect the output to a PC and listen via headphones. I installed a sound module in the piano instead. Edwards makes acoustic foam; pianofortesupply.com has acoustically insulating caster cups for grands. --Cy-- Cy Shuster, RPT Albuquerque, NM www.shusterpiano.com www.facebook.com/shusterpiano On Sep 23, 2010, at 9:45 PM, Geoff Sykes wrote: > Greetings All – > > I have several times seen this new-fangled grand piano practice rail > kit at PTG conventions.
