"MIDI 9 liberates your acoustic piano by allowing you to connect your piano to a computer based synthesizer.
MIDI 9 has discontinued its KS MIDI systems. MIDI 9 is now shipping our new MIDI 9 designed QRS PNOscan all optical sensor strip.
The PNOscan will easily fit in any piano. It has no moving parts and has a much lower profile then our previous KS systems had.
The lower sensor strip height now greatly simplifies installation in Rhodes pianos and organs, including tone wheel Hammonds. When installing in double manual organs, one control box can now handle two 61 note sensor strips, saving space and cost.See what our products can do for you today."
Anyone know more about this and if there is any relation to the MOOG Piano Bar?
Thanks goes to Gwenhwyfaer in the comments of this post on the Gulbransen Orchestra II: "Google is almost completely unaware of it [the Gulbransen]; but it looks as though it's the synth / control panel end of a grand-piano-to-MIDI conversion kit. Gulbransen appear to have been superseded by MIDI 9, who do the same kind of thing... Here's an installation manual"
