| Desc | Duo-Art Pipe Organ Rolls. 176-hole recuts of these 151/4" wide rolls. Their Catalog claims they have been checked hole-for-hole for accuracy, are packaged in boxes identical to the original. Plans to make 200+ titles available (out of about 600 that were made for this instrument). Unusually for such obscure rolls, these rolls may be selected individually from stock, not restricted to a subscription system. Accuracy is paramount with this project. We have been making perforator modifications recently to improve the already fine product. Nelson Barden compared a new roll to one of his originals. In about 70', the difference in the two rolls was less than 1/2". Prices range from $25 - $40. Rolls are perforated by Carl Lambie. |

| Desc | The International Association of Mechanical Music Preservationists (IAMMP) is a group of volunteers dedicated to the preservation of music rolls. Our official website is at http://www.iammp.org Music rolls, developed in the mid 1800's, were used in player reed organs, push-up piano players, player pianos, and similar instruments. Much of this music is in danger of being lost as the paper rolls continue to deteriorate. IAMMP members are constructing electronic scanners, based on the pioneering work of Richard Stibbons, to convert the punched paper music into digital form. The digital files are being archived and converted to appropriate data formats to be played on the computer, Disklaviers and similar instruments or, in a different form, used to operate perforators to create fresh rolls of original accuracy. Membership in this group is open to anyone who has an interest in helping to preserve our mechanical music heritage. Use of the information contained in this e-group is primarily for hobby purposes. However, certain commercial uses of the information may be permitted, as described in the group's charter. For access to the group's charter, music and technical databases, set your browser to www.iammp.org |
