Proper Playing Tempo of Piano Rolls
By Fred Martin

I recently purchased a batch of MelODee player piano rolls, each one
has four tunes. There is no Tempo marked on the rolls; am I just
supposed to use trial and error to set my piano to the proper tempo?

Is there a [standard] set tempo for all rolls, and the same for each
of the four tunes?
