Recordo Rolls?
By Brian Thornton
Last week I just picked up a restoration job for a local elderly couple. It is a Spanish rococo Cable-Nelson baby grand with a simplex/recordo player mechanism. Of all the player grands I've seen, this is very unusual. With the exception of the pump, the entire player mechanism and expression controls are all incorporated into the drawer. An arrangement of hinged rods makes it possible for the player action to work regardless of where the drawer is positioned. Two questions my customers have, which I need to put out, are: (1) Is anybody recutting Recordo rolls, and (2) Is there a electronic/pneumatic interface available for the Disklavier system? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
