Title A name given to the resource Double reed box single tracker bar (incomplete) Subject The topic of the resource Free Music Description An account of the resource Wood, plastic, string, tape, metal, masonite This ‘reed box’ is designed somewhat like a giant mechanically-operated mouth organ. A large strip of paper (not present), like a pianola roll with holes cut at calculated points, was to be rolled steadily over the multi-coloured plastic fins, below which sit an array of accordion reeds tuned micro-tonally to approximate the effect of gliding tones when adjacent reeds are played. The machine was to be operated with a vacuum cleaner providing the necessary suction to draw air through the holes in the paper roll and then through the reeds.
