A few weeks ago, in response to concerns and confusion about
just what is an e-roll, as opposed to midi, I posted a graphic
display on my web site.

Subsequent to that, Walter Tenten advised me that he too put
together a document on same topic for his colleagues in Germany,
published in "Das Mechanische Musikinstrument". Walter
kindly translated it for us and it is now posted on my web site
at:

It is also available as a clickable link off:

Which also includes a clickable link to Warren Trachtman's
description on same topic:

http://www.trachtman.org/rollscans/scanningbackground.htm

Hopefully, these 3 web pages will help clarify just what is an e-
roll within generally accepted midi standards.

Regards,

Terry
