Gentlemen All Thank you for the Pianocorder files. After much time spent by my son, my computer is again working. That plus the fact that I have been up to my...
Greetings! I posted to the group a while back about my desire to scan and archive rolls for electromechanical carillons. I was curious what the current status...
... Hello Chris, I can't find any of your prior posts, at least not with a name of only "n9wiv" so I'm not sure just what information you might be looking for...
Just a brief note to let everyone know that my twelfth batch of roll scans is now available. There are 216 titles in this batch, bringing the total count...
Hey Terry, I just had a thought about MIDI. If I wanted to play your 88 note roll MIDI files on my orchestrion is there a way to turn off certain output...
... your 88 ... certain ... so that ... orchestrion ... instruments). What you want to do is (presumably) filter out the MIDI commands that turn on and off...
Greetings Rollscanners, I have a bunch of routines to modify MIDI files in batch mode. I have several utilities available for shifting notes etc. It would be...
Greetings Rollscanners, I uploaded another little utility to my web site that might be useful to some. The program allows for the remapping of MIDI notes in...
Greetings Rollscanners, The AMICA convention in Denver was a great success. It was also, the first annual meeting at which electronic and computer technology...
After scanning some 1,800 rolls, I admit to having grown a little complacent, naively thinking I've seen it all. However, some recent experiences, giving me...
Terry, I am wondering-- what would happen to your sig/noise ratio if you were to "filter" your light source? If the paper is brown then there's a lot of yellow...
To amplifly on what Craig said it would be quite interesting to see the reflectance spectrum of the problematic paper. That would give indicate if something...
Terry, I don't know exactly what filters to use, but start first with something cheap and easily obtainable-- like bright yellow cellophane wrapping paper. Or...
Actually, if I remember now, oblique lighting shows much less density change than direct lighting does because it's reflecting at an angle. Direct lighting if...
... Hi Terry, I don't know if you have the capability to switch over to using the internal CCFL that is built into the Dyna-CIS unit or not, but I have also ...
Hi Terry, I realize this will be the most off-the-wall suggestion, but if all else fails: AND Assuming that that you are dealing with a roll that is ONLY good...
Hi Tom, You know-- I think Warren's idea of using the green light output of the CCFL might be the best to start with. If the owner of the rolls don't care, and...
... Hi Craig, My decision to use the green was **strongly** influenced by trying to reduce the false specks generated by the ink used to print the lyrics. It ...
I'd like to reinforce Spencer's note - it was a very good convention, and from reports of the board meeting I think that AMICA has made good progress in...
Warren, I can understand that when you encounter translucent or mottled paper, the reflective mode is better than transmissive mode. So if the light source in ...
... We have found a real easy solution for scanning light or translucent rolls on our (reflective light) Ideal scanner. We merely use a piece of black film...
... Hi Julian, Sadly, this was among the many files that Richard deleted when he made the disappointing decision to cease his participation. Since he was the...
Greetings to all you scanners and scanners-to-be The recent thread on which color pixel to use for best performance depends largely on the type of light you...
Hi Folks, Well, I finally got to the stage where I'm ready to start posting MIDI files from some of the rolls I've scanned. I have no hope of catching up ...
Hallo, I am new. A simple question, why made a a scanner? canot u photocopy or scanner with a normal scanner? what are advantage of this scanner? I am making...
Craig has posed a question relative to a concern I've had all along about file naming. The critical initial CIS scan file is created within pure DOS. DOS has a...
