Pleyel Odelola & Web Site of Jean Michel Detrey
By Jean-Pierre Jouandet

I found a web site where there are various pages about a player piano
and an original method to convert piano rolls into MIDI files and the
resulting MIDI files to download.  Visit

  http://perso.wanadoo.fr/pleyodeo/index.htm

Best regards.

Jean-Pierre Jouandet

 [ Ce web-site est merveilleux!  The author is M. Jean Michel Detrey,
 [ and he describes, in both English and in French, the Pleyel Odelola
 [ which he has restored.  Watch closely the animated photograph at the
 [ bottom of page  http://perso.wanadoo.fr/pleyodeo/HTML/sitodeo.htm
 [
 [ M. Detrey also built a push-up player so that he could transcribe the
 [ music rolls to MIDI files.  He writes, "The quality of the resulting
 [ MIDI files depends significantly on the status of the rolls, some
 [ which spent several months in the granary of my grandparents' house
 [ which was bombed in 1940 ..."
