Music Media Scanners & Transcribing Machines
By John McClelland

Greetings all,  I'm curious as to how many people are scanning
automatic music instrument rolls, to include piano, orchestrion,
band organ and any other type of paper/cardboard media.  I know of
about 22 units, both pneumatic and optical; are there any others out
there that are maintaining a low profile?

I anticipate doing a presentation on current efforts to preserve music
on this media, so would like to know the number of scanners out there,
both active and inactive.  If you don't want to respond on MMD, then
please contact me via private email.

Thanks,
John McClelland
