Imagine how difficult it was making these with correct timings back in the day. Doing this on something round is just insane with all the different diameters.
geoffrey, i don't know you, but i'm glad you and i have had the same idea to visit all these various old musical recording devices at the current time of year. i keep seeing your comments everywhere and felt like pointing out i keep seeing you around
I assume its about as difficult as writing music on a piano sheet, so not all that difficult when you know what you are doing, if I remember they have a machine that precuts these from a master slide that you did beforehand.
@@SMGJohn way way more difficult than writing music on paper. On paper you literally just paste out notes, here you have math that changes depending on each individual note, plus you have to deal with factors like the size of the disk, the individual metal notes, and things like the fact that the outside is spinning way faster than the inside.
I read in a book on antique music boxes, particularly on the Polyphon, that the smaller disk playing machines many time had a better sound that the enormous size boxes with double combs. I think this Polyphon proves it!

Guten Tag. Ausgezeichnete Polyphonie. Vor einigen Jahren habe ich für meine Tochter ein ähnliches Polyphon gekauft, aber es erfordert eine Restaurierung der Mechanik, den Austausch mehrerer Getriebewellen und den Einbau des Aufzugsmechanismus, und deshalb suche ich einen Meister, der mein Polyphon restaurieren kann. Wenn Sie einen solchen Meister kennen, geben Sie mir bitte Auskunft. Vielen Dank im Voraus. MFG.
Ah, "La Paloma," a most beautiful song. My all-time favorite vocal version of this song is by Mireille Mathieu -- where a French woman sings this Spanish-Basque song in German.
