Recording a Music Box
By Vickie Davis

[ Ref. "Seek Musical Box Recording of "Buffalo Gals",
 [ by Ellen Snyder-Grenier, in 060329 MMDigest

I need to know the best way to record the song, "Buffalo Gals", from
a keywound 80-note 6-aire Frères LeCoultre cylinder music box.  The tune
plays well and loudly with very little twang.  I have a webcam that seems
to record the sound well, but I would like to produce the best for this
wonderful new collection being permanently displayed at the Morris Museum.

Please visit http://www.morrismuseum.org/ for information about this
wonderful collection that was donated to the museum by Mr. Guinness.
