A electronic Pipe Organ (Photos)

Hello,

My Father being a Pipe organ player, he decided, a few month ago, to built an electric classic organ to practice at home.

The 4 Keyboards were made by Hoffrichter.

The software used is Hauptwerk, running under WinXP Pro on a dual processor computer

(2Go Ram, E-MU sound Card).

The Wooden console was hand made by my father.

The Midi project was to command the sound selection using Stops knobs (like in church organ).

This was made using the MidiIO128 project.

As I got lot's of help from the ucapps forum to realize this project, i wanted to post some photos for you.

Here is the Finished Organ:

Thank you again for your Help. Without you, it wouldn't have been possible....

Wow - what a beautiful job he has done!  I like addition of the cherubs for that classical effect!

I'm also running Hauptwerk with an old 3 manual stack MIDIfied with the MIDIO128 kit.  I do keep wanting to add solenoid drawstops, but they cost so much - if anyone has a cheap alternative (a simple DIY job?), I'd be interested to know.
