Excellent video! I wish this had been available when I was wondering whether or not I wanted to get this set or perhaps one of the two available Willis sets. It would have sped up my decision for this lovely sample set for sure 😀
It seems that the video "Inside the organ 005" has not yet been published.Is that so, as I cannot find it anywhere. I would be quite interested to see your approach to Audio Configurations in Hauptwerk v5. Thanks
Excellent demonstration of this sample set! I am waiting for the updated set to come out and plan on using it in my church. This organ seems to do everything and is great for accompanying with 3 enclosed divisions. Who built your console?
Just to be sure: the samples were all recorded while the organ was still pitched at A=451 ? And they have not been doctored, so the virtual organ is still at 451 while the real one is now at 440 ? And if that's right, how come the virtual organ includes the tuba mirabilis that was never present at A=451 ?
George Battrick The Organ was completely sampled before the re-pitching to provide an historic record, including dry samples recorded from next to each pipe. Following the work by Harrisons the 3 new ranks and one extension were sampled. Some other ranks were re-sampled. The Hauptwerk software is able to set the temperament and pitch as required, so not a problem to play the old samples at concert pitch, or the new samples at Old Philharmonic pitch.
@@stephennortonorganist8808 Wow. And while I have previously heard of a "dry" acoustic, it's only in this context that I've come across "wet" to mean that the room characteristics are included. Cute.
I love your history, details, and illustrations of stops being used.
Very noble swell organ !
Thank you for the demonstration. We hope you are enjoying our virtual organ. Do come and try the real thing when you are in the area.
Excellent demonstration of an organ I intend to purchase at some point. Thank you!
Excellent video!

Lasted 3 minutes then was falling asleep. BORING!
