NOTES
The Composite Choir division is derived from the enclosed Great stops by
either direct borrowing or extensions.

The Great/Composite Choir is on the front, right side of the chancel. Only
the 8/4/2/IV principal chorus is unenclosed. The Great 8' Principal is of
polished tin. The 8' Major tuba is of flamed copper and is mounted en-
chamade. The wind pressure is 3½\".

The Swell is on the front, left side of the chancel. The 2' Flageolet is
harmonic. Pipes 1-12 of the 16' Basson are half-length. The wind pressure
is 4\".

The Pedal 16' Diapason is of both flamed copper and polished tin. Pedal
ranks are on various pressures, and are divided on both the Great and
Swell side.

The console is appointed with Peterson solid state controls.
