Aeolian 176-note Roll Recutting Project
By Robert Hopp

In 1991, when I built "Amadeus", I knew this scale for having rebuilt
an instrument like this in France in 1985. I thought that this was
'reasonably' the highest scale that "Amadeus" should be able to
perforate.

Actually, by using all 16 MIDI channels and notes, it is in theory
possible to make 2048-note scales but I do not know higher than
176-Aeolian (using rolls or books) !

Collectors interested in such rolls (copies or creation): just send me
a mail; "Amadeus" will be happy to work for you !
