What is your piano brand and type?
Damage to the contact rubber can cause note plays loudly or,
note does not plays at all.
It is caused by:
1. Carbon rubber contacts dirty / dusty (yellow arrow). Clean with a pencil eraser (or cloth). Gently rub it.

2.
Contact rubber is torn (your case). If this happen,it can not be repaired or glue. So, you have to replace one octave.
The yellow arrow indicates the side that is often torn.


Rubber side that is torn, usually not seen, unless we move / pressing gently on top (In the rubber contact position is not installed on the board.)
Examples of this picture was yamaha psr.

Yamaha P-70 digital piano. A few keys are making a loud knocking noise. The note still sounds, but the knocking noise on the few keys can be heard at the other end of the house

There's an extremely comprehensive pair of videos about repairing this problem on YouTube thanks to David Allyn. I have embedded them below, or you can search "P70 Noisy Keyboard Repair".

Need help in choosing the best digital piano you can recommend for me for A budget of 2500-3000 usd

The Korg SV188 has stunning realism in the Grand Piano arena. It uses a 12AX7 tube in the preamp output for that classic analog warmth lacking in so many garden market digital stage pianos these days. It has weighted hammer action and carries a price tag of $1,699.00 at American Musical Supply.com They even throw in a extra years coverage at no cost. The Yamaha MOXF6 88 key (same price) is another fine grand piano that wont disappointed but be prepared for a large learning curve learning all the rest of it functions, there are plenty to chose from. Roland wins hands down with its RD300nx, $1,799.00 and the RD700NX $2,699.00 simply the best digital stage pianos money can buy . Look up the specs at AMS

How to open 3 demo pieces of Technics SX-PC10 Digital Piano?

Usually you just select which demo BEFORE starting the demo.

If you are meaning to try to DOWNLOAD via MIDI or other those demo pieces that is USUALLY not possible as the pieces are stored in a ROM which is inaccessible via MIDI or USB.

They OFTEN don''t even send them out on the MIDI port when playing them.

How to remove piano keys from Roland KR 4700

You probably need to just clean the circuit board and the conductive rubber contacts. There are two per key to facilitate reading the key velocity.

Use 99% isoprophyl alcohol and Q-Tips to clean both the board and the rubber contacts.

A rod is inserted lengthwise to hold the hammer weights while removing the boards. Use dowels from each end inserted about halfway back between the keys and the weight rods. Use a 1/4 inch dowel rod.

You have to take out a few screws to remove the boards from the key assembly. Be careful of the cables.

Roland 3000 Digital Piano 88-Key Full-size weighted keyboard

It's not really for the faint of heart, but generally this is caused by gunk getting into the key circutry. Underlying the 3000's keyboard is a silicone pad with 2 contacts on it, the measurement between each being hit is the issue usually but yours just sounds like there's something in there causing a physical or contact obstruction.

What you really want to do is to remove the keys and clean everything but this isn't easy... You could try using 99% alcohol (from a pharmacy) to clean inside it which may well help you.

There's a good thread on a similar issue at:

http://www.electronicspoint.com/roland-hp-3000s-digital-piano-dodgy-note-t18946.html

Which may help you work out how to do the disassembly if you are brave, but I would start with pouring some alcohol in and poking it and hoping for the best 1st. It sounds crude, but it works amazingly well with some things.
