Wurlitzer Roll Formats
By Gordon Forcier

Hi Everyone, I have been in contact with Matt Caulfield on the roll
formats of Wurlitzer and DeKleist and I figured, that if anyone had no
idea what the original formats were, I would be glad to share them, so
here goes: the formats are as follows:
•
  125   use for styles 103 thru 127
  150   use for styles 145 thru 153
  155   use for DeKleist Monster only
  160   use for DeKleist Mammoth only
  165   use for styles 163 thru 168
  180   use for style  180 only.
•
Did you know that Wurlitzer made a 166 and 168 roll format also?  Well
it's true.  The style 166 organ was a 67-key and the 168 was a 69-key
organ as well.  I think that doing research is fun, don't you think so
Robbie?  [ Agreed! ]
