Ok a pianet.  I was wondering how they got that massive dynamic power chord that I could get from a Rhodes but not the (Crumar) Roady .

I saw the rig close up in Montreal and they definitely used pianets. Both Cross and Fripp had them on the mellotrons. On some of the live recordings from this era, you can hear them quite clearly, especially in the improv pieces.
