However, please note that when the solenoid player system is sitting in the music box, the lid of the music box does not close.Īntiquity Music can provide a Regina or Polyphon 15.5" Disc Music box in similar condition for an additional price. The solenoid player system easily slips out with no tools required, such that the user can play a disc or close the lid immediately after removing the player, unplugging the MIDI cable, and unplugging the power cable. The solenoid player system is fully removable, such that discs still can be played on the music box. The solenoids are connected to the MIDI converter board through the use of two DB-25 connectors, which allows for the panel to be interchangeable if the buyer so desires.

On our Regina disc music box shown below, the power switch, power connector and the MIDI connector have been installed in the panel in front of the bedplate we can install these in the back of the music box if the buyer so desires. Please note that the music box is not included in this price, and that we will need your music box on-hand in order to custom-build the MIDI player system for yours. We offer custom-builds of this player for Regina or Polyphon disc music box owners at a price of $4500. This player system was originally built for us by Knowles Little, a music box enthusiast.

For your consideration is a MIDI-triggerable solenoid-actuated player system for a Regina or Polyphon 15 1/2" or 20 3/4" disc music box.
