Responding to Bill Masterman's question on "A" roll tracker bar hole
assignments, the following appears in "Rebuilding the Player Piano" by
Larry Givens (book borrowed from Geo. McClellan):
Hole 1...Soft pedal
Hole 2...Sustaining pedal
Hole 3...Rewind to play
Hole 4...Lowest playing note
Hole 61..Highest playing note
Hole 62..Additional instrument on
Hole 63..Rewind
Hole 64..Mandolin on
Hole 65..Shutoff
I am not sure if there is a standard for actual note assignments for
holes 4 through 61, but will check my instrument (Simplex Player) and
let you know, if this info is important for your application. Maybe
Robbie knows ???

[ When correctly tubed the lowest playing note is 36C (MIDI notation),
[ two octaves below Middle C (60C). The span is 58 playing notes,
[ the highest being 93A. -- Robbie
