Liszt "Mephisto Waltz" Metrostyle Duo-Art Roll
By Douglas Henderson

Hello MMD readers,  A customer shared his picture of our Mephisto Waltz
(Liszt) roll, the only 'Metrostyle' Duo-Art arrangement to be produced,
so far, to my knowledge.

The wavy red line was designed for phrasing rolls on pedal players,
originally, but it has additional uses on the electric Duo-Art action,
as the accompanying text states.

It takes 12 templates on the motorized editing table to process this
roll, which is approximately 75 feet long and which is also stamped
with tempo numbers for player instruments without a Metrostyle Pointer.
I have passed 200 copies since the first release in 1987, which
translates into a lot of felt tip disposable marking pens (in red)!
