Orm Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Hi all, I've searched already several times but I cannot find a definitive answer. My question is - are there any 'default' or 'standard' 30+ buttons layouts. I can imagine Jeffries and Wheatstone/Lachenal did things differently, but apart from one diagram of 40 buttons wheatstone layout I cannot find any good source of how exactly these buttons are/were tuned. My question comes from my 32 buttons Lachenal. I have extra buttons on it tuned to (pull) E3 / (push) B4 on LH and (pull) C6 / (push) A#6 on RH. I find LH one quite handy for irish tunes, havent' used RH one much yet. But I'm not sure that these reeds are original. So did I miss some informative threads somewhere on c.net? Or wasn't it discussed much yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adrian brown Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Hi Roman, It did come up here earlier this year: And there are some links there to other threads where this was discussed. I think if I had to choose, I'd want a push f natural in both middle octaves (on left and right sides). Drawn notes on the LH, a low D, (a tone above the lowest note), if it could be managed in the available chamber and on the RH a high d' if it was a Wheatstone layout. Hope this helps, Adrian 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
