I've noticed a crackling noise on Bambino Upright, I can't tell if it is bad sampling qualitity or conversion, or a compression but on release (no soft release) of lower notes of this specific piano you can hear this noise.
On the recording I play in the same batch other pianos, to eliminate bad cable or bad recording possibility, I also listen on headphones directly attached to the instrument.

I suggest listen on Headphones.

Yes I get it too. Sounds like a little noise on the release samples maybe?

I wonder if other sizes of that piano don't have it? Might be clipping?

I wonder too, but it's hard to say, what actually is. But would be nice if someone who has the NS2 download this same version and do a test like this.
To me sounds like a bad compression, but again I'm just guess.

It's not clear on the audio( maybe compression) But I'd sugest to take a good headphone and test it by yourself.

I test now Bambino, and this noise of string chirping about the body of the piano. Hope it helps

Yes, helps a lot, thanks, and I could agree with that, but you know what could help even more if someone with NS2 could test and check if this noise is there too.
