SOLD! Amazing demo Aaron - the humor might have done it for me - top notch stuff! All the easter eggs (hatched and un hatched 🦉) - incredible musicianship and playing!! Bravo 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Thanks! Yes, with a little scrap wood, taking measurements, wood glue, and spray paint, it took me about 2 days to assemble it, and then just set the keyboards in with some velcro so they don't move. You can do it!
Whatever you started playing at 16:00 was one of the best things I've ever heard come from an organ. Your review/history was hilarious too. Keep up the good work
Aaron, what midi keyboard was used in your home organ - Nektar Impact GX61 or other? What can you say about the keys themselves on this keyboard, how reliable and quiet are they. I also have a variant of the M-Audio KEYSTATION 61 MK3 midi keyboard. What would you choose from these two options from the point of view of the keyboard keys themselves and the feeling of playing them. P.S. I have Hauptwerk 4.2 with 8 organs and 1 harpsichord on my computer. At the moment I have two assotiated with Hauptwerk midi keyboards: M-Audio Axiom61 and Casio STK-6200 (synthesizer as midi). And no pedal board.
They are indeed the Nektar 61, but they are the semi-weighted action. They are wonderful controllers, but if I had to do it again, I'd get the "synth-action" version by the same company. I've since tried those, and they are closer to an organ touch (for the same price point). Hope this is helpful!
@@aaronshows Dear Aaron, thank you very much for your reply, but I still don't understand which Nektar 61 series you have? Even on the manufacturer's website it's impossible to know definitely what type of keyboard is used for which model. The manufacturer has six different series and it is impossible to understand which one has what type of keyboard (different data everywhere). Which model did you see the “synth-action” type? I have an M-audio axion (some sources say it's a semi-weighted keyboard, while others say it's “synth-action”. But it's obviously not a synthesizer type, but a semi-weighted one!) I also have an M-audio keystation 49 - so there the keyboard is purely synthesizer type and I can't feel it and I don't like it. I've never played real organs and I can't imagine what it feels like, but I understand very well the feeling of a piano keyboard - I would like to get such or close to it from M-audio or Nektar. That's why I asked you about a specific model of yours or one you know by feelings. I don't want to spend money and get an ordinary synthesizer keyboard like M-audio keystation 49. Thanks in advance for the answer.
The keyboards you see in the video are the Nektar GX61. I have since tried the SE61 and I think those are better for a more realistic organ "touch." Hope this is helpful!
This organ is actually of Hispanic origin, as it has multiple Manuels. Also, we must remember of those who traveled to play it, Omaha and benefactor~ Nebraska.
there is no connection between number of keyboards and hispanic origins ? Even tho the Cavaillé family did work in the iberic peninsula for quite a while...

Amen to organs that are not all reverberant acoustics. Here’s to hearing the actual sounds!
Nice console! You've given me some ideas and some hope that one day I too may have access to an instrument at home.

@@aaronshows AWESOME! I love it!

Much appreciated! Yeah, pipe organs rarely get played this way... Haha!

Only if you say those names in a French accent! 😂

Don't be confused, we're only joking! 😂
@@aaronshows ~ I should have written Omahá and Nebraská

Does Hawptwerk have the random cough/drop something sound effect?
Mine just dings every few seconds.
There can certainly be coughs and sounds of hymnals being dropped on stone floors, but I haven't heard it on this particular instrument...yet.
My typewriter does the same thing! Weird.
