2012-12-18 - This entry describes an original installation of a new pipe organ. Identified by Ryan Kennedy, based on personal knowledge of the organ. -- The action is direct electric, with magnets for each pipe (except mixtures, where all ranks are controlled by one magnet). The tonal design is vaguely neo-baroque. The organ is located in an upper balcony, elevated about 10 feet above the church floor, opposite from the chancel. The acoustics are fairly dry, and there is much carpeting downstairs, though the chancel area has wood flooring.<br><br>Currently, the organ is useable for services and recitals, with several exceptions: the reeds in the Pedal and Great are damaged and await repair; the combination action does not function consistently; some longer facade pipes are damaged due to prying fingers, and need adjustment. -Database Manager
