Hello everybody,

I apologize immediately to quote other sources of forum, it being understood that, if a further exchange is possible in this place, it is obviously on this forum (and in English) that I will continue the conversation.

There a few years ago, I started thinking about it. It is also conceivable that I return on it, especially because I think  that my progress in programming have not stagnated. And I still believe it will be necessary to develop the facilities of organological publications since some organbuilders who restored such great Cavaillé-Coll are absolutely willing to publish their studies on the web.

As I said in French here (translated here by Google)

The website of Pascal Leray gives see sketches of windchests. However, it quickly becomes clear that there are, in fact, fully electric with one electromagnet by pipe. Well, I find it of course interesting... but I think that we have to progress .. and publish.

I tried to start the conversation on this topic on the Mander's forum. It is one thing to find this very well, congratulate, encourage... Another thing is to criticize and make news ideas, even completely contradictory to what I try to grow. In short, it often falls into the water, the organbuilders considering they have other things to do than give their recipe calculation of windchests to the community who do not cares of this things.

Thence to imagine they please share their work under the aegis of Open Source or Creative Commons licenses... We can dream. Is this forum haunted by organbuilders? Are there (a little bit) programmers ? Am I alone in this world ?

Hello everybody,

I discovered your forum today, boring me too much to read the Frenchs... But I speak and write only very little English even if I happen sometimes make an effort.

If I understand your question correctly, you asked for it three years ago, what thinks an organbuilder on the formulas given by the friend Raphi Giangiulio. Is what I'm wrong?

I already spoke in French on this specific topic on the forum of my own web site with translation by Google can be read directly here.

If I allow myself this, it is because I think that you could may not know these pages, written and programmed by me a few years ago now, but that have never been translated even if a menu in the top right suggest this... We must therefore be content, once again, with the mill of Google.

Since these publications, I discovered things posted by the organbuilder Nicola Ferroni especially a series of eight articles that starts here. All in Italian, that I read barely (but automatic translators are your friends) ...

What can we find in English on this subject? Where are the articles on the web that deal with pipe scales? I'm still very surprised by the fact that american people are surely NOT on the top...

Raphi Giangiulio has so much merit to publish these arrays of scales and calculation procedure. In English, it is so rare ... But, as I said otherwise, it remains that the data he publishes are extremely (if not only) used in United States: based on Töpfer and its incorrigible German "Normal Mensur"...
