Reproducing Piano Rolls to MIDI
By Bill Budenholzer

I know this has been discussed before but was hoping there would be
more information.  Has anyone been able to come up with a method that
will play scanned reproducing piano rolls and play them though a MIDI
synthesizer with appropriate dynamics?  I don't have a reproducing
piano (nor do I have room for one) and have never even had the
opportunity to hear one.  It would be nice if I could at least hear
some of the music that has been discussed here.

Thanks for the help.
