Digital Console Short Manual.Pages
THE DIGITAL CONSOLE AT THE ORGELPARK The digital console at the Orgelpark controls two organs: the Sauer organ (1922) and the Utopa Baroque Organ (2018). This manual covers only its basic functions. Please read the extended manual to learn more. Step 1: turning the console on Hold the RFID-tag over the right cheek of the upper keyboard. The procedure will take circa 1 minute. The console is ready when the touchscreen shows 16 boxes in four rows, named III.1, III.2, etc. The upper keyboard is keyboard III, the middle one keyboard II, the lower keyboard I. Step 2: the buttons in the cheeks You can have several registrations sound at the same time on each keyboard; we say that these registrations lay in ‘layers’ one over another. Each layer has its specific name. On keyboard III, for example, the names are layer III.1, layer III.2, etc. Each layer can be ‘opened’ by using the buttons marked with these names in the keyboard cheeks. Each of these layer button is joined by two other buttons: MUTE and ∞. • The button MUTE allows you to quickly turn on and off the respective registration layer • The button ∞ sustains notes until you strike a next key hard; striking next keys gently adds the respective notes to the sustained sound Step 3: opening layers Opening a layer, by pushing the corresponding layer button (the button starts blinking), makes the control panel over the upper keyboard show the registration contained in that layer. • If no registration has been made yet in that layer, all tabs and buttons will show their 0-position; you can now -

It comprises an historic overview, a survey the organ, a report of existing conditions, and recommendations for the immediate care and ultimate restoration of the Sinclair Auditorium organ. To prepare this document, Jeff Weiler and Jonathan Ambrosino spent August 6 to August 10, and the morning of August 11: • playing the organ, inspecting the pipework, surveying mechanism and photo- The organ contains thousands of pipes, most of metal but documenting conditions; some of wood. These are in the Swell organ. • opening up windchests to determine the state of the internal leather; • creating an inventory of pipes stored in the basement; • removing the non-original Great Trumpet and reinstating the original First Open Diapason, formerly stored in the basement (the Trumpet stop was put into a storage box and arrayed in the basement storage area); • through-tuning all 57 ranks; • meeting with Brett Wolgast, Bill Carson and Dick Harmon to discuss the organ’s history, present and future. This document is a prolonged snapshot of the organ over a week’s visit. Our impressions here blend with experience from other Skinner organs to appreciate and describe its present condition. -

RTOS Organ Specs As Built
Rochester’s RKO Palace 4/21 Wurlitzer - Opus 1951 12/25/1928 Original specification by house organist Tom Grierson The instrument known today as the RTOS-GRIERSON 4/23 Wurlitzer began life as a 4-manual, 21-rank Special, Opus 1951. It was shipped from North Tonawanda on September 12, 1928 to the new 2916-seat Keith-Albee Palace Theatre (later renamed RKO Palace) on Clinton Avenue North at Mortimer Street in Rochester, NY. It was premiered on Christmas Day of that year by Rochester organist Tom Grierson who is said to have participated significantly in the specification of the instrument. Over the years Wurlitzer historians have often commented that Tom’s British roots are strongly reflected in its design. While Opus1951 is often said to be similar to a Publix #1, there were a number of differences. Besides having one more rank in the solo chamber and a 15 hp blower, other significant variations include: Main chamber: • The Tuba horn (16 ´ - 4 ´) was not placed in the main, but in the solo chamber instead. • The Dulciana and Solo String I ranks were not included in this instrument. • A 15” wp Gamba (16 ´ - 4 ´), Violin (8 ´ - 4 ´) and Violin Celeste (8 ´ - 4 ´ tc) were included. • The Diaphonic Diapason (16 ´ - 8 ´) is 73 notes and has no 4 ´ octave. Solo Chamber: • There was no Vox Humana in the solo. • There is a Horn Diapason (8 ´) in the solo • The Tuba Mirabilis is extended to 16 ´ (wood) Bombarde. • Piano, Sleigh Bells, Vibraphone mechanism and second Xylophone were not included. Console: • No “master” swell pedal. -
Theatre Owner's Manual
TH-202/TH-302 Theatre Models IMPORTANT! Organs which contain GeniSys™ technology no longer include the GeniSys™ Controller Guide within the model specific Owner’s Manual. The correct GeniSys™ Controller Guide must be downloaded and/or printed separately. Please check the CODE version of the software installed within the organ to determine which version of the GeniSys™ Controller Guide is required. The CODE version is briefly displayed within the GeniSys™ Controller’s LCD display when the organ starts up. Copyright © 2016 Allen Organ Company All Rights Reserved AOC P/N 033-00221-1 Revised 10/2016 ALLEN ORGAN COMPANY For more than sixty years--practically the entire history of electronic organs-- Allen Organ Company has built the finest organs that technology would allow. In 1939, Allen built and marketed the world’s first electronic oscillator organ. The tone generators for this instrument used two hundred forty-four vacuum tubes, contained about five thousand components, and weighed nearly three hundred pounds. Even with all this equipment, the specification included relatively few stops. By 1959, Allen had replaced vacuum tubes in oscillator organs with transistors. Thousands of transistorized instruments were built, including some of the largest, most sophisticated oscillator organs ever designed. Only a radical technological breakthrough could improve upon the performance of Allen’s oscillator organs. Such a breakthrough came in conjunction with the United States Space Program in the form of highly advanced digital microcircuits. In 1971, Allen produced and sold the world’s first musical instrument utilizing digitally sampled voices! Your organ is significantly advanced since the first generation Allen digital instrument. -

Johannus Opus 27
Exciting times The new Johannus headquarters, an imposing neoclassical building is bustling with activity. A long period of successful and costly research has been clompleted. The new organs have been designed, production can begin: Truly a new milestone has been reached. In the history of Johannus several milestones can be pointed out. First of all, of course, the foundation of the business in 1968. A second milestone was the introduction of the 200/300 and 500 series with which Johannus made an international breakthrough. The third milestone was the creation of Real Time Sampling in the nineties, which Johannus developed into a highly advanced technology. Due to the fantastic sound quality of Real Time Sampling Johannus rose to the absolute top. At present we have reached the fourth milestone. This does not mean a mere change in models, but a number of remarkable improvements and inventions which will change the organ world. These will offer the organ lover really fabulous musical possibilities. Playing the organ is going to be more fun than ever. What is new? Sampling quality has been greatly improved; a new audio system has been developed (X.I AUDIO) and a three dimensional echo effect developed. Johannus engineers have succeeded in designing a greatly enhanced cathedral effect: named Stereo 3D acoustics. Other signifi cant musical improvements are Chiff Dynamics and pipeLIFE™ Tuning. The Easy Menu program was written and the research of making 12 organs in 1 was completed successfully. And last but not least, we inven- ted Physiological Tone Control. Johannus consoles have always been in a class of their own. -
