MIDI Conversion for Nickelodeon
By Will Dahlgren

Just finished adding niclelodeon parts to our QRS Pianomation piano.
QRS has four Cd's but I want more and am considering trying to get
some rolls converted to MIDI.

The added instruments are:

    3 beater bass
    3 beater snare
    crash cymbal
    hi-hat
    tambourine
    cow bell
    2 separate castanets
    22 note xylophone from C6 to A7 (or for some folks C5 to A6)
    2 separate finger cymbals
    triangle
    2 beater wood block

The instrument can play all things individually - i.e. the xylophone
doesn't have to duplicate the piano.

Confessing great nickelodeon ignorance, my first step question is:

    Are there any roll standards that might match the above
    instruments?
