    Hello. Heartaches is posting this morning. Played at the printed tempo of 70. You'll be able to see that at the beginning of the roll. Hope you like it!

      Thank you! I'll go and see if I can find the video :D

    I'm looking forward to finally see this piano. Give us a good tour of it. We want to see it all. Congratulations! These old pianos need homes where they are cared for.

    Looking forward to seeing it. I used liquid latex and thin cotton sheet to repair some of the bellows on mine, maybe I'll need to make a more permanent fix and replace the cloths at some point but it's lasted a couple of years so far. Hoping you'll make some before and after videos.

      Interesting! I wonder if that method could be used to seal up the pumps a bit 🤔
      The stack is perfectly fine but the piano won't hold suction at all so once you pump fast enough to get air actually moving then the piano just plays quietly, albeit with all notes working consistently and well.

      @@PiotrBarcz most of the leaks on mine were in the air motor I had to dismantle it to find all the cracks where the material creases, also the thicker pipes had hardened and we're loose on the connections I used silicone pipe they are very flexible making it much easier to assemble and disassemble.

    Nice, have you ever seen the sega toy player piano or the pianolodeon, I was trying to find out how player pianos worked and they showed up, they seem like they would be cool to have.

    • @PiotrBarcz
      @PiotrBarcz  Місяць тому

      Yeah I've seen it before. They sound terrible and they're MAJORLY overpriced.
      Would be fun to have one to record a video of and then put midi audio over it though.

      @@PiotrBarcz yeah, the sega one doesn't sound that bad but the pianolodeon does, I just thought it would be nice to have some kind of player piano because I'm probably not going to be able to get a player piano for a while if I even get one because I got the Haines one, there was a nice player piano but the player system didn't work so I didn't get it.

    That’s great. Where did you buy it and how much did it cost?

    • @PiotrBarcz

      Got it for 400 bucks from a guy in Vermont. Good deal considering the stack has been rebuilt, the pumps and tracker are going to be far easier to fix.
