Seek Chromatic Paper Strip Musical Box Movement
By Karlheinz Essl

Dear MMD readers, I am looking for a punched tape controlled music
box with chromatic tuning in a range of two octaves. I own a diatonic
instrument of such a kind, but for a new compositional project I need
a chromatic one which I can program myself using punched tape.
Does such an instrument exist? Does anybody know somebody who is able
to build it?
