How to remove the squeaky sound of pedals?

[alybaracat]

Hi all,

I have recently recorded a piano cover and I noticed that the pedals are making annoying squeaky sound that are really annoying, I wanted to ask how to remove that sound?

Thanks in advance for your help

A good technician should be able to find theost probable origin spits and apply a graphite powder dry lubricant and work it i to the movibg parts.

To remove it from your current recording, you need a REALLY good audio technician as far as I know.
To remove it from future recordings, call a technician. Attempting to fix a piano yourself without sufficient knowledge is a horrible idea.

Remove the front panel below the keyboard you should reveal the pedal action and you can tighten it or lubricate it. Easy.

As someone who does covers simply out of boredom... I'd say that your playing isn't bad, but it sounds like you're lifting the pedal BEFORE you play the next bar, instead of connecting the bars by pedalling AS you play the beginning of the bar.

The other thing however I find a little odd is that this piece is clearly in a simple 4/4 time signature, but you've slightly buggered the melody by trying to put it in a 12/8 time signature.

I don't think a compound time signature works in this piece.

There is no front panel on a grand.

None of which has anything to do with the actual question posed by the OP.

Well, considering he had posted the video clip 4 times in 4 different threads, I guess I accidentally posted my reply to the wrong one.

Should I have to beg for your forgiveness???

Oh sorry I thought it was upright. For grands usually it's that bit of leather between the spring that wears away then you get that creaking.

Well it is a grand shown in the video so I am presuming it is a grand the OP has.

For grand pedal lyre problems it is best to call a tech as the pitman could be the problem and that requires action removal and replacement.
