Vorsetzer History!
In 1904, Welte designed the Vorsetzer using wide rolls with extra codes that operate sustaining and soft pedals and allow for the complete range of volume. Rolls were made of red paper, with green paper coming after World War I (the rolls were still recorded on a red system; the green were never manufactured in the U.S.). An American manufacturer produced the Welte-Mignon (Licensee). Welte rolls and pianos were produced by the successors of Michael Welte & Sons Inc. of Freiburg and New York, New York, with their own factory in Poughkeepsie, New York. Welte-Licensee was produced after 1919 but it was not as good as original vorsetzer.
