2015-09-26 - Owned by Doug Bailey, Washington area film producer, and installed 1965 in WXLN Radio Studio, located on lower level of the Congressional Plaza shopping mall in Rockville, Maryland. <BR> "The organ is a hybrid, mostly Möller. The ornate console came from a 2/7 [2/10] Möller in the Shoreham Hotel (built about 1932) [1930, Op. 5849]; it was in the ballroom, and a plain-Jane twin console controlled the same pipes from the lobby.<BR> "Most pipe work, chests, percussions and traps are from the Loew's Palace [Washington, D.C.] 3/32 Möller. Two treasures are a large-scale marimba, which sounds like another rank of pipes when on reiterate, and a 61-note chrysoglott with piano-type action.<BR> "The control room, chamber, studio and blower-relay room occupy a total of only 900 square feet, but expansive use of Masonite and avoidance of parallel walls in the studio and chamber have created a well balanced sound, both to the ear and the microphone."
