It reproduce music very well that could be heard by = the set of reeds it have. But, it would be not any surprise, it may be happe= n that some valve, bellow fabric(?) or joint make loose vaccum and it can't = play a  piano keyboard. I looked that the valves(two strips of skin) of= both pedal-bellows were in not good condition and now I am replacing them.<= BR> I would like if anyone on the list  that may have experience with this= kind of apparatus, could get in touch with me to advice me to do the best w= ay. I also would appreciate any graphics or diagrams anyone could find or an= y site in internet where I would get information of this topic.The only thin= g it seems to be lost is something that must be attached to the pedal levers= to make possible the contact with the piano pedals.Obviously I need informa= tion to make the replacement Thank you in advance.
