I've modified the St. Annes Moseley organ with the following changes:
1) Extended the range of the pedals to 32 notes. (I've created 2 new .wav files for each of the Pedal stops).
2) Increased the number of General and Divisional pistons to 10 per manual, including tutti and cancel buttons for each manual as well as the generals.
3) Added a Great Octave coupler
4) Made slight volume adjustments to individual stops (decreased Open Diapason Small 8, increased Pedal Trombone 16)
5) Made a dramatic adjustment to the Swell Oboe 8 & Swell Rohrflute 8 stops to be used as solo stops.
6) Made the Great Dulciana 8 available on the Swell as well.
7) Re-mapped the keyboard shortcuts, making it (for me, at least) easier to trigger while playing.
Following should be a screenshot:
If anyone would be interested in having the .zip file containing the .organ file and the 14 .wav files (for the added pedal notes), I would be willing to share (free, of course). I only need to find somewhere to post the 4.9MB .zip file.
A caution:
The Midi Control numbers won't work well until someone can explain to me how to map the various stops & keys to a midi keyboard (yes, I've read the FAQs)
You may need to decrease the overall organ volume to 35 to avoid distortion from levels being too high when all the stops are pulled. I tried reducing the amplitude within the .organ file, but I got an error message on trying to load it into Hauptwerk ("A pipe failed to load").
I also generated a few 32' Pedal stops (Trombone 32 and Open Diapason 32), but they didn't play well on my cheap speakers, so I removed them.
One question: If I use the same set of .wavs on two seperate stops (ie: I've loaded Dulciana 8 onto both the Great and the Swell), does Hauptwerk load it twice into RAM, thereby increasing the memory required to load the organ? -- The reason I ask is that I would like to preserve the original Swell Oboe 8, Clarinet 8, and Rohrflute 8, while also adding increased-volume versions of these stops as Solo Oboe, Solo Clarinet, and Solo Flute, respectively, without doubling the RAM used for these three stops. Anyone know (Martin)?
Hope someone will find this organ useful/interesting.
