The remotes, including Kean's M-1R unit, are fired
from a contact strip under SOME keyboard. I called
Dave this afternoon and asked him about it and he says
his M1-R came from a guy named Ron Rose who used it in
a one man band show in Lake Tahoe NV. The whole story
was pretty entertaining! Anyway, Ron had this unit
controlled from a Hammond of some kind and hid the
remote behind a curtain...wowing his fans with the
"magical organ". Much like Michael Iceberg's schtick
with Disney.
