The renovated organ addressed electrical and tonal deficiencies of the 1923 Möller Organ. All electro-pneumatic action was converted to MIDI digital technology, which corrected the dead notes and corroded wires. Tonal improvements were made in all areas. The 32’ Resultant, 8’ Gedeckt, 16’ Contre Trompette, 8’ Trompette, 4’ Clarion, were new additions to the pedal stops. The 4’ and 2’ Principal, 1’ Sharp Mixture III, 16’ Contre Trompette, and 8’ Trompette were all new stops added to the Swell division. The Mixture III and Trompette 8’ were new additions to the Great division. On all keyboards, divisional and general pistons were added as well as 100 MIDI digital memory levels. The organ renovations allowed for a wider variety of organ literature and variations in hymn playing. [Received from Adam Johnson August 14, 2018]
