Hello MMD.  In the Digest of 031015 Ken Rosen enquires about the scale
for Aeolian 65-note pin-end rolls.  My Aeolian 65-note pushup has the
"A natural" one octave above the lowest note on the piano as its first
note in the bass, and has the "C sharp" almost one octave (bar one
semitone) as its highest note.  If I had been brought up properly I'd
be able to tell you the proper musical names for those notes.

The rolls are nominally eleven and a quarter inches wide and there are
six holes to the inch along the tracker bar.  65-note rolls do not have
sustain perforations; you have to operate the sustain pedal yourself.
My pushup has a Themodist mechanism so the tracker bar has 67 ports.
The extreme outer ports respond to the "snakebite" theme perforations,
which had to go near the edges of the roll paper as there was nowhere
else to put them.

 [ MIDI Specification 1.0 defines Middle C as MIDI note 60 within
 [ a keyboard of 128 notes beginning on sub-bass "C" and numbered as
 [ 0..127; thus all "C" notes conveniently are integral multiples of 12.
 [ By this definition the 65-note Aeolian Pianola push-up player plays
 [ MIDI note 33 (A) to MIDI note 97 (C-sharp) inclusive.  See also
