piano in the control room... problems with it resonating?

[otobianki74]

I have been offered a nice piano but the only place I have space for it is in my control room.

wondering if this can cause a problem with the strings resonating when I'm playing mixes back loud, or working on stuff in general. maybe some of you have experience with this type of thing.

thanks.

they can resonate

doesnt have to be that loud
as long as it matches the freq of some strings
or the wooden case

The strings on a piano are naturally damped unless keys or the sustain pedal are held down, so there won't be a problem. I have a Yamaha C7 in my control room, and believe it or not when I moved it in it seemed to work like a bass trap and removed a lot of boom from the studio.
