Notes

2014-12-31 - The Principal is completely unified, playing at 8' 4' and 2' - both manuals. The Mixture is independent with bottom end transmitted to the pedal. The exception to this is the pedal 5 1/3' -- this is an independent rank. The 32' is a resultant, the rest of the unification is pretty obvious - Gedeckt 4' comes from the Gedeckt 8', etc. The Englestimme is a Gemshorn Celeste. The 16' octave of the Gemshorn is Haskellized and the 16' Trumpet is half length. Much of the pipework was new when the organ was installed. The reeds are Trivo and the additions to the rest of it -- the Haskell bass and the Mixture -- are most likely Organ Supply. The blower is a Ventus. The relay is Peterson. Both new when the organ was installed. The single set of shades is Austin as is the console - the organ was installed by an Austin representative.
