88 Note Roll Expression
By Phil Dayson

Hello all

I have just returned from the AMICA convention in Seattle A very successful
convention   A lot of fun for all those attending There were a lot of
88 note rolls played.  That got me to thinking about my piano. It is an
English Steck pedal electric   --Full Duo Art.

Because of the reservoir size etc I am really not able to easily accent
individual notes by pedaling.  Consequently I don't often play non
Duo Art rolls

If I tee into the snakebite tubing and add a little finger operated
valve to each of the treble and the bass lines I can add a lot of
expression to a normal 88 note  roll   -- the kind with snakebite
perforations.

Any comments thoughts  or other alternatives
Phil Dayson
