     NOTES


          Console prepared for expansion
Modified and expanded in 2002 (expansion was digital except for
the first two items):

- 4’ drawknob added to unified GT 8’ 2’ Holzgedeckt
- Great to Swell 8’ coupler added 

12 pipes from the PED 16’ Bombarde rewired to SW, creating a
unified 16’ 8’ 4’ reed chorus

Digital PED 16’ Bombarde added

PED 16’ Bourdon removed (from the original H&H instrument - 30 pipes)

Digital GT 16’ Bourdon added (borrowed on PED)

Digital SW 4’ Flûte Harmonique replaced unified SW 4’ Flute

Digital SW II Sesquialtera replaced unified (flute) SW 1-1/3
   Larigot (most of the 4’ and 1-1/3’ flute pipework still used
   by existing unified 2-2/3’ Nasard)

Digital GT Mixture III replaced GT Mixture III (24 pipes extended
   from SW Cor de Chamois -- lower octave of pipework is still 
   used via 4’ couplers)

Additional digital ranks added
