When only one of the stops is engaged, the dampers for the other stop are actually in the raised position, producing a rich, reverb-like resonance. This is different from later Flemish or French harpsichords.

This is especially noticeable when using the Concert Harp(sustain, reverb and delay are turned off, I know sustain pedal is inverted for the harp, aside from the la piano preset) but no matter what, there is always an almost metallic reverb/sustain like effect when I play. I'm using on three different devices. This doesn't happen on piano. Just the harpsichords(blanchet and grimaldi) and both harps.
