    I wrote an article that was published by the Journal of American Organbuilding in June of 2014. I was solicited to write this article to explain what types of material are available for keyboards and related information. It is written for organ keyboards but a key is a key. It is 6 pages of easy reading with pictures. Enjoy

    No, David, it's not just you.
    The PTG Home Office posted a downloadable .pdf also a few minutes after
    Michael posted his but both seem to be "(processing...)"... still...
    and, thus, unavailable.
    I'd guess it's just another instance of Higher Logic's expertise in what
    they sell. If only we all understood it better (like they do), we'd all
    appreciate it more... maybe? :)
    Patience seems to be indicated. Probably a good time to go somewhere
    else and do something productive while HL stands out in their field.

    All the best,

    No, David, it's not just you. I got an "unexpected error" prompt (as opposed to an "expected" error?) when trying the links on both postings.

    The upload issue has been resolved, I see that you have uploaded is a doc form as well but the .pdf should work too.  If you send it to me I can add it to the original or you can re-upload yourself.  Sorry for the inconvenience.

    Maybe post each page as a jpeg? Pics are easy to post.
