Dear Jody, I'm new to computers and MMD, introduced by Fritz Gellerman.
One hobby is restoration of antique musical instruments.

The collection includes a 1935 Steinway reproducing grand with electric
motor and tubing around end of stack (one of six known), a 1927 Fisher
reproducing grand, a 1925 88-note player upright, a 1928 88-note
upright player, a 1920 Tangley calliope, a 44-note reproduced Caliola,
and a band organ.

The organ was originally a pinned-cylinder style 1188 DeKleist that was
built in April 1898, that I converted to a Wurlitzer 125 in 1971.  I am
contemplating a MIDI conversion for this 125 band organ and am looking
for pertinent material concerning this task.

 [ too, and he can tell how he adapted the cottage orchestrion at
 [ Disneyland for MIDI control.  I think it was also a barrel organ
 [ originally.  -- Robbie
