This bank has been created according to the
following aims :
1)
We have decided to sample the real pipe organ "as it is", and not to
create a new instrument. It is just a normal study organ, not an
exceptional instrument... You'll listen to it as it was in August 2005.
2) You may find this recording too dry, not
reverberated enough. It is wanted, because we want this bank to be used
in many contexts. You may modify its sound, and add some reverberation,
what would have been impossible with a less neutral sound (for ex :
church or concert hall).
3) The organ is tuned to A 440 Hz and
to equal temperament. But we propose the possibility to retune it to
five other temperaments : Pythagorician, MeanTone 4,
Werkmeister 3, Vallotti, and Kellner, using the excellent PipeTune
program:
(http://www.duemig-neufahrn.de/Orgel/PipeTune/ ) and 5 .bat files are available with some
instructions for use in one autoextractible file on the download page. |
