Angelus Orchestral "Phrasing Levers"
By Leslie Hoffman

I have a Wilcox & White Angelus Orchestral push-up piano player
with two ranks of reeds in it.  It plays and rewinds just fine,
but the linkage to the "Phrasing Levers" are missing and therefore
I cannot change the sound of the roll.  I believe these levers to
be equal to the levers of an expression player piano.  The linkage
probably was wood, strap or spring, but I can not readily see where
it should have connected.

Is there anyone out there that owns a Angelus Orchestral and has
knowledge about these linkages?  Or does anyone have a schematic
drawing of the inside of the Angelus Orchestral?

Thank you,
Leslie Hoffman
