When your Audoifire is back, please load volume 1 first and play. Add pedal stops and couplers full and play.
Then load volume 2 (and 3) and play, then listen good to the sound. Add pedal stops and couplers again.
You will hear a clear difference, in my opinion the most in the pedal stops, not the true sound as it must be.
Hearing from you,

Sorry this reply is a bit late. But I'm embarrassed to say I only loaded volumes 2 and 3 last week for the first time after having purchased them over a year ago
I had to load the whole organ in 16 bits, but even so I find that that all of the stops sound of equal quality. I even find I prefer some of the volume 2 and 3 stops over the ones in volume one, only because of their character.
At this point I am using a pseudo surround adding about 3 seconds reverb to my rear channels. I find this does a very nice job, definitely making the sound more real, like one were sitting in the church. I also have compared this setup to using the surround of the Freiberg and Velesovo demo's and can say I almost prefer it over the surround as it extends the reverb time a bit which I prefer.
Probably my next set will be the Velesovo as it's a very articulate set for Bach, etc., a nice change from the Hinsz. Funny though, after playing going from the Hinsz I prefer the change for a little while, but then find myself coming back the the Hinsz, and it sounds even better for awhile with the added reverb. Then after awhile I find I like the more articulate Velesovo sound for a time again, and that's just the demo, can hardly wait to get the full set. That's what's so nice about HW, so much flexibility.
