Hi MMDers, I am in the process of working through the rejuvenation
of a 1925 Hupfeld Animatic Clavista which plays the Animatic S rolls.
It is basically a player piano with mandolin, wood block, snare and
bass drums, cymbal and xylophone.
It has been attended to by others prior to my ownership and many things
were bypassed and/or changed from original. In order to try and work my
way through all the gadgets and connections, I was wondering if anyone
out there might possess schematics for this type of instrument in order
to improve my opportunity to trace through everything and see why things
have been altered and whether improved as a result.
I got it to play everything today but when it rewinds, for instance,
it also wants to play the music in reverse. It also suffers a little
from low-ish sound output. I would be most grateful for the assistance
and would be pleased to recompense for any copying or scanning, etc.,
involved. Sincere thanks in anticipation.
