This reminds me of the scifi short story called "exhalation" about a society of air-powered robots who live on a planet that has a giant reservoir of air inside it and they recharge their lungs at these air pumping stations so that all the pneumatic mechanisms in their bodies can keep working. I always had trouble visualizing what the mechanisms would have looked like, but now i imagine they would be somewhat similar to this piano. It almost seems like a living creature compared to a computer filled with unmoving electronic components 😮

what did player pianos use before vinyl tubing?

Just get another roll, I have thousands and I can't give them away!

Thanks so much for this detailed view. Just curious, are there corresponding "recorder pianos" to create the rolls? And are there also format issues, like rolls that can only be played on certain playback systems?

It’s an air powered computer(ish lol)! Awesome! I never knew how these worked

It has some lead which means it should be fine got me laughing for some reason probably because without the context it would sound like he thinks lead is good.

My grandparents bought a Baldwin brand new in 1928. And it cost a little over $300. They bought it on an installment plan at around $15 a month. A year later Baldwin lost one of the payments that they made and they didn't have proof because it was Cash mailed in and they had to repay for the same month twice. After that they were adamant on saving every receipt for everything they paid for and I have all those receipts to this day from over a hundred years ago.

i love the old music thank you😄

I've got to get this roll. I have the later 40s cut of a J. Lawrence Cook rearrangement of this.

One of my favorite rolls and first ones too! I have a nominal 3 copies now xD

J. Lawrence Cook under Kortlander's name. Max Kortlander made his last rolls in the 3000 series.

I have this roll! :D

QUS THE MOB SONG FROM BEAUTY AND THE BEAST 2017 F MAJOR

It was the best of times, Rag Time.

Wow 😳😳😳 that's very educational. I have piano rolls but no player piano... Yet.

Щойно дізнався, навіть трохи соромно бо мені 52 , що такі диво-штуки існували, та навіть ще існують!.. Здивуванню моєму не має меж, я вражений! Музично-механічний комп'ютер! Не інакше! Браво майстру, що зробив! Та володарю, що розповів!.. Привіт з України!

God is amazing

You need to buy a tripod.

Good presentation. You missed talking about the governor.

2:34 Probably not lead, lead is too soft. My guess is probably zinc or some kind of pot-metal.

Jesus loves you and wants a relationship with you! Just accept him as lord and savior, repent of your sins, and youll be saved!

listen to it at .75 speed first.

Thanks for this. I was able to get my great grandmothers piano to work scrolls again for the first time since I was a little kid. Tempo is a little wonky but it still works pretty well.

It's good old and great! I think you love ragtime!

does the organ is still working on 2024

what song is that?

i also have elka organ like this one , can you tell me its worth i wanna sell it

I really hate people that constantly use the word "basically." This guy is totally different; he constantly uses the word "essentially" in the exact same manner.

Hey there! Would you recommend removing the mechanism to transport one of these and then reconnect it for weight’s sake or is it better to just leave it intact? Also, about how much do these weight?

Can you still get parts?

How did I go by all my life without this information?

Fantastic. I must look out for this roll for my 1927 Daleforty Player Piano 🙂

Thank you for the instructions

How do you remove the two wooden front covers so you can get to the mechanism in the first place?

That looks so cool!

Does anyone happen to know if some of these types of player pianos were ever refitted later on to also run on electricity, rather than manually pumping the foot pedals? Back when I was a little kid in the '70s, our house had one, and I remember sitting on the bench, pumping the pedals to listen to the songs, but I also have vague memories of it being able to be set up to run on its own, without having to have someone physically operating the pedals. Am I correct, or is my memory just playing tricks on me?

Cool

Thanks a lot for this!

cannot believe how wonderful this machine is i used to like wind up gramerphones as a kid this machine came before what led on to be junkboxes

magic a different world long gone but very exciting and inspiring love the sounds this machine makes even if a bit out of tune they are like strange living beings doing more to us than just playing a tune and giving us a ride they could be spell casters

I love this song

No 146

Is there a difference between piano brands vs rolls? Are the rolls interchangeable?

This should be our state song!

I think it sounds great

4:47

what song is that on the piano

GASTON JOSH GAD LUKE EVANS ENSEMBLE QRS ROLL PIANO

What company made the roll? Then I'll know what to avoid buying.

Beautiful
