Perforating Piano Rolls From MIDI Files
By Jean-Pierre Jouandet

I scanned about 80 rolls into MIDI files with a flatbed scanner and
sent them to Terry Smythe.  I'm interested in perforating these MIDIs
into new rolls.  These MIDIs may be found at

  http://members.shaw.ca/paud122/batch24.htm

I wish to have copies of :

- Borrachera + el ultimo gaucho (2 tunes on an old Spanish large roll;
I wish to have the 2nd tune on a normal new roll : it's a "pericon",
an Argentinean dance; the 1st tune is a tango);
- Cocaina Tango (Princesa);
- Katinka (unknown brand);
- Any Ice Today Lady? (Princesa);
- Viva Navarra Jota (POCH);
- Copa del olvido tango (Salabert);
- El cisne blanco (Marvan);
- and some others.

These MIDIs need some corrections I'll make soon.  I'm seeking someone
who will perforate new rolls from my MIDIs and ... some other buyers to
reduce costs.  It's the same problem as perforating original rolls from
MIDIs.
