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.

[ 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 ..."
