Ampico Conversions from Duo-Art Rolls
By Walter Tenten

In MMD 111220, Eliyahu Shahar mentioned, "This rare roll is
one of those that were produced for the Ampico from Duo-Art's
library after the merger of the two companies."

Any idea how this was done?  My specific question asks for the
procedure of converting the dynamic information.

 [ I presume an Ampico piano was placed next to a Duo-Art piano
 [ and a persevering editor (Frank Milne?) created Ampico codes
 [ such that the Ampico performance sounded like the Duo-Art.
 [ It's the same as making the piano 'reproduce' the performance
 [ of a live artist (and perhaps improve it).  -- Robbie
