Hi, the first three clips are most impressive, Nice to hear a Newly Built Pipe organ. the Electronic Content Organ is nice in a different way ! the Electronic Sound seems to be much closer ( as in distance ) than the Pipe organ recording.
HI, I can only assume that People's taste may have changed over the years ? But it is a good question as to whether the " Authentic" registration should always be used ? I don't know !
Hi, item number 313394956597 located in Northwich tunes listed are Easter Hymn, Autralian Hymn ( Haydn ) , Helmsley , Surrey, Hanover , made by T C Bates
Hi, I happened to see this on TV, and just wondered if the Organ used to accompany the Choristers was Electronic or Pipe ? the console seems to be a modern design with stops above the keyboards as well as to either side. ( yes I know I should be able to tell if it is Pipe Or Electronic, but my ears are out of practice ! )
Hi, there are many things to worry about nowadays, but this should certainly I think be one of them ! I guess the phrase " don't take anything for granted would apply " on the Oragn related front, I still haven't got a basic practice Organ working. regards Peter B
Hi, well JOrgan uses java, and Grand Orgue can work with LInux, Windows or OSX. Grand Orgue is about a 600mb download. I think JOrgan is smaller. some combinations of programs and computers work well, others don't. So unfortunately there is a learning curve involved with any new software. I think Grand Orgue may be able to use Hauptw*rk Sample sets, Jorgan uses I think sound fonts. AS it is that time of Year. Good wishes to everyone for the New Year ! regards Peter B
Hi, you ask a good question or two ! In general you may not be able to just copy the files over from the old hard disk to the new hard disk. ( if you are talking about the operating system files and main program files ). You might be able to do this with something such as Norton Ghost. I don't know if you can just copy the sample sets from one hard disk to another ? Or if they have to be installed again ? regards Peter B
Hi, that is most impressive ! There can't be may ways to know what was being played in the 18th Century, but this seems to be one of them ! Regards Peter B
Hi, well I seem to have success logging in here. But yes the comments about everyone leading busy lives is very true .... have the font sizes changed ? Hopefully other people here can post as their time allows. regards Peter B
Hi, when it is not such a busy time of year might you be able to post a couple of short you tube clips to give everyone an idea of the different stops ? Regards Peter B
Hi, just to confirm that the website has been updated recently. the Joining page may have moved ? but should be accessible from the main page. regards Peter B
HI, a longer term solution might be to try to fit magnets and reed switches to the existing pedalboard. certainly I would hope these would last longer than some mechanical switches. regards Peter B
