help, weird brake screeching..

So my issue is that im getting very loud screeching noises like a metro bus when i apply heavy pressure to the brake pedal. The noise is not there when i apply light pressure to the brake pedal but at the stoppng point where more pressure is needed it screeches. If i use the ebrake to stop or slow down, the screeching doesnt exist, same as braking in reverse. Can anyone chime in about this issue. thanks

Maybe you have a pebble trapped in there. Inspect the pads, and
if no pebble, file a slight rounding of the edge of the pad that the disk
rotates into.

I've tried the filing, makes no difference
Do you guys put the dampers back in on aftermarket pads? I've just resorted to changing the pads everytime I go to the track :x
