Introduction & Welte Philharmonic Player Organ
By Kyle B. Irwin
Hello all. I'm a new member of MMD. I have several player instruments
in my collection. Just this week I was given a beautiful 9-rank Welte
Philharmonic player pipe organ. Unfortunately the player mechanism was
dismantled but is still all here.
The rolls seemed to have walked out the door so I am without any rolls.
Are there any books or reference materials on the Welte Philharmonic?
Any rolls that were recut?
If I can't locate any info I might have to convert the organ to solid
state. I look forward to hearing from some of you.

[ Welcome to MMD, Kyle. I hope that we will hear from the experts
[ about sources of rolls for the organ. Also, MMDer Tom Grace can
[ tell you about adding electronic control to a Welte player organ.
