Re: Stoddard Ampico Loud/Soft Control
By Rob DeLand
I have a Chickering upright Stoddard Ampico with the loud/soft control mentioned, and mine works. I'll have to look at my mechanism more closely, but as I recall there are 1 or 2 small pneumatics each on the bass & treble expression boxes which push the expression throttle rod (sorry, not a very technical term!) up & down to override the paper roll control of loud & soft. I'll try to give you better details in a few days.
