Notes

2006-11-15 - Updated through on-line information from Stan Scheer. -- In the list above, "Registers" refers to the total number of speaking stops including duplexed and extended stops but excluding couplers, tremulants and controls. "Stops" refers to the total number of independent or straight stops excluding duplexed and extended stops as well as couplers and controls. -Database Manager

2016-04-04 - Updated through online information from Richard Byrd. <br>Specification corrections: 1. The Tuba (Solo) has 16' and 8' drawknobs on the Choir Division - no 4' drawknob as indicated in the specification. Instead, there is a drawknob for the Vox Angelica II at 8' pitch. 2. Choir Division - Violin Diapason borrows 1-12 from the Major Flute, as indicated, but also includes open 4' flues in that octave. -Database Manager
