Immediately behind the shutters is the main Great chest holding the 8' diapason, 8' dulciana and the 8' trumpet winded by one reservoir. Then a walkboard and the Swell chest holding the 8' oboe, 4' orchestral flute, 8' voix celeste, 8' stopped diapason and the 8' salicional. The other Great chest is in the back of the chamber and holds the 2' and 2 2/3' mixture II ranks and the 4' octave. This 3 rank chest is winded off the Swell reservoir and is affected by the tremolo. The pedal is regulated through the lieblich gedeckt action. -Database Manager
