Someone asked me for help with a problem in which their music box made a clicking noise and seemed to “stutter” a bit when they turned the handle. Has anyone else experienced a problem like this? Any ideas?

hey y'all, i've been digging this up for some time, seems like at some point the editor deletes the nearby note along with one added. is there a limit to notes or to length?

Is it possible to replay from a given point instead of the start? Creating a song is really tedious starting every time from the second 0 when you made a small change after 100 notes...

I recently bought the 50 meter roll of 30 note music box tape. The problem is that it slips half of the time.
I saw posts of people with similar problems, and the user skyriver claims to have solved it... But I can't seem to be able acces the website. If anyone has solutions, or can at least retell what skyriver's solution was, I'd be grateful.

According to the website, I can print the hole punch cut out. When comparing it to my strips however, the size is one cell too small. I want to be able to print the strips, and tape them on my roll of strip so I can punch the holes and remove it after, but the strips don't fit.

here's an image of me comparing the strips I use to the printed guide: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ikvvvVKOURC2SCxWnUoIfl1G80dnP67-/view?usp=sharing

What can I do to fix this? By the way, I am printing with a Brother HL-L2360D Series Printer and have tried many settings to get them to fit. But I get that close with my scale as Actual Size (100%) and am printing on a paper size of Letter. And yes, I am exporting the PDF as Letter. So, it should fit...! I think it's because my music box accepts wider strips, so I can't just use the PDF from here. If anyone can help, please do. I have been trying to solve this for over a year now...

Hi,

I just recently bought a music box for my girlfriend to celebrate our 1 year anniversary coming up. However, when I received it, I opened it up to listen to the quality of the music.

The quality sounds absolutely fantastic, but there's a noise that's holding the quality back from being perfect. There's a tingy noise that plays before and after some of the notes. It almost sounds like some of the combs are gently scraping against the wheel.

Does anyone have experience with this? If so, what should I do?

I would post a video, but I don't see any media attach option on this forum. I just created this account to address this specific reason.

I recently bought a 30-note music box from ebay, the kind which lets you make your own song sheets and play them. What bothers me is that some notes make a slight buzzing sound, as if theyre touching something, and sometimes the notes dont ring out completely. Is there any way I can fix this? I'd add a video but there isn't an option to do that.

Hi Forum,
title says everything - Where can I buy the Musicbox in C? Its seems it is everywhere in F to find.
kind regards

Hi all.
I'm new at this, so maybe anyone is familar with this issue and knows what to do.

I got "Celin Dion - My heart will go on" song file sample (from seller), marked and punched wholes (i got 30 notes Wingostore music box). Then played couple times - it sounded perfect.
However, later when I tried to play one more time, begining was ok, but ending was like from horror movie.
I analysed and find out, that paper strip moved a bit (1-2 mm) to one side (and wholes as well), so that was the reason.
Paper strip side isn't damaged (at least i dont see).

Any suggestion, what to do?
