The dual keyboard sustain pedal stabilizer is designed for use with a pair of keyboard sustain foot pedals. The dual keyboard sustain pedal stabilizer comprises a stabilizer base, a first pedal-retention area in cooperative engagement with the stabilizer base, a second pedal-retention area in cooperative engagement with the stabilizer base, and an underside of the stabilizer base having a non-slip surface. The first and second pedal-retention areas each include retaining structures proximate to the stabilizer base. The retaining structures enable secure retention of the keyboard sustain foot pedals within the pedal retention area. The dual keyboard sustain pedal stabilizer provides stable footing for the musician on damp floors for both feet while providing a dual keyboard sustain pedal stabilizer that stabilizes either one or two keyboard sustain foot pedals. The dual keyboard sustain pedal stabilizer has no moving parts and is compatible with essentially any keyboard sustain foot pedal.

The keyboard sustain pedal stabilizer comprises a stabilizer base, and a pedal-retention area in cooperative engagement with the stabilizer base. The pedal-retention area includes a retaining structure, the retaining structure enabling secure retention of the keyboard sustain foot pedal within the pedal-retention area. The retention structure may be an end-wall in combination with a pair of opposing sidewalls, a recess in combination with a pair of opposing sidewalls, or a recess in combination with an end-wall. The keyboard sustain pedal stabilizer may also include an expanded position and a retracted position, the expanded position being for cooperative engagement with the keyboard sustain pedal, the retracted position being for transporting the keyboard sustain pedal stabilizer. The under surface of the stabilizer has non-slipping properties.

The combination of a piano and an actuating device for a pedal on the piano. The actuating device has a frame, an arm on the frame movable in a controlled path, and an actuator assembly. The actuator assembly has a component moved from a first position into a second position to thereby cause the pedal to move from the starting position into the actuated position. The actuator assembly is configured so that movement of the arm in a first direction in the controlled path causes the one component to move from the first position into the second position. The arm is movable by a leg of a user situated in a playing position with respect to the piano.

A hybrid acoustic piano, specifically a piano the wires whereof are struck, of the type including a grouped wires, where of each group of three or of four wires associated with a key, one of these is tuned at a pitch different from the other two or three, which are tuned identically; and where the mechanism is such that when the pedal is in a resting state, that is, without depressing the pedal, on pressing the keys, the hammers strike at least two wires of the three or of the four wires of each group with the same tuning, and when the pedal is depressed, the mechanism displaces the hammers to the right and, on pressing the keys, three wires are struck, one of which is the wire tuned at a different pitch from the others.
