Notes

2005-06-30 - Tuned using a mild unequal temperament - Kellner's "Bach." Wind system with wedge bellows and electric blower -Database Manager

2014-08-21 - This project was completed in Spring 1981 and was developed by the Builder in coordination with ideas from David Boe, Dean, and Dr. William Porter, Professor of Organ and Harpsichord, Oberlin Conservatory of Music. -Database Manager

2016-03-17 - Updated through online information from David Poile. <br>The second and third entries (from 2014-08-21) are entirely erroneous for this instrument and should be deleted. Those two entries are actually ones for the Brombaugh organ at Fairfield Chapel of Oberlin College (OHS Database ID 8003). This organ did not exist in any form in 1981. Its contract was signed on April 19, 1999 and the organ was dedicated on November 14, 2004 (see https://resurrectioneugene.org/music/about-the-brombaugh-organ/). -Database Manager
