A little You Tube video made Oct 2021 after the latest editions of a real VIOLIN below
The violin is animated to play the notes and rotation bow wheel when the actual violin pipes are playing inside the instrument, much like the saxophone on a dance organ operates then the saxophone pipes play. This really adds to the visual experience when hearing and watching this instrument play along with the motion scene which depicts the first flight of the LZ1 Airship of Count Fernand von Zeppelin on Lake Constance Bavaria.
Sorry sound is not the best as it was recorded by my smart phone so it is not very good compared to hearing the instrument live. Also several other YouTube videos that show the instruments many features etc. Please feel free to contact me with any questions etc.

Two more great songs from the hand of Gustav Bruder in 1920 created especially for the Weber company and of course the MAESTO. This is also a little tour showing the motion scene which I made to coumarate the flight of Count Zeppelins LZ-! on lake Constance near Friedrichshafen Germany I found the picture at the Zeppelin Museum in Friedrichshafen Sept 2019 and being a Zeppelin fan decided this would be perfect for this very special instrument
Oct 2021

Below are a few pictures of the Brotech Electronics MIDI system
Pictures below are the addition of the Trumpet/Saxophone rank of pipes, Special to the Weber Maesto scale.
Pictures Below show the Swell shutters on the lower front door section, as well as the creation of the latest edition to the motion scene a "flying witch on a broom" as well as a back view of the motion scene to show how simple it all is with just one motor to operate the Zeppelin up and down and the two sail boats racing out in the lake, Balloon race is another motor which is speed controllable as is the windmill.
Also pictures show how the entire front comes off as one section on wheels, making tuning and maintenance a breeze.
Also shown is the creation of the 13 note C to C bell unit (Decan Metal Bells) which is intended to be used with the Wurlitzer Mandolin PianOrchestra music but can also be turned on, so that when the Maesto (also Welte, Link etc.) Flutes are off the bells are on, as you can hear in the above samples of the Weber Maesto Music it sometimes works and sometimes not, but does add to music that has been heard many times for a little variety. :-))
and finally the lid which goes over the instrument section with it's swell shutter.
