Hi Alex, Thanks for you interest in my video. The 4 knobs on the top of the (keyboard side) of the melodeon are for changing the tone or the number of reed blocks playing. With 4 stops pulled up you have the full sound of the melodeon Bass, 2xTenor and Treble sounds. The fewer stops on the melodeon, (some have 3 stops and others only 2 stops) then the less full or quieter the sound. The spoons on the left hand side give the bass note and bass chord. I hope this explanation helps. Regards, Tom

Why are most of the old melodians in the Key of C? Was that a more common 100 years ago?
With the key of C you can play almost every tune possible very popular with one row accordions
Is the C melodian a transposing instrument?
I find it impossible to understand what he is saying.
Do you not speak English?
