- EASY ON - electronic power control system of all components in the organ (sound system, power to the computer and MIDI components, and even lighting control of pedal)
- Reset the audio and MIDI functions.
- Virtual blower switch. Signaling of activity (turned on by default).
- Hard off switch of the main sound system.
- The switches of virtual instruments.
- Fully compatible with Hauptwerk 4, everything is integrated.
- Laser-engraved wooden plates with the names of the functions of the instrument.
- Main instrument: Sonus Paradisi "Velesovo." The disposition of these organ has been placed on register plates.
- Two alternative instruments: Sonus Paradisi "Freiberg v.2" and the Milan Digital Audio "St. Anne." Disposition of alternative organ was placed above the register plates on wooden plates with laser engraved names of voices.

This is an absolutely brilliant project. Well done.

Can you describe how you have mounted the HWCLD displays?

I am still trying to work out the best solution for this in my project.
Cheers,

The website is in preparation.
I don't really understand question about HWLCD. What do you need to know exactly?

Hello Ziemowit,

Can you describe how you installed the HWLCD into the console. I have built my own console and want to install 2 HWLCD into the nameboard. I have a few ideas, however, you have done it very well and I was hoping you could share how you fixed them in place.
Cheers,

Nice works Andruss, congratulations! 8)

If I may ask -

- where did you get your keyboards from? Fatar? UHT? Other?

- as for the pipe organ which still stands behind, is it completely silent now?

I still do not understand your question. How was installed HWLCD? Well ... There is a hole with dimensions of the display ... And it placed HWLCD.

Question about keyboards: the producer is Fatar. This time. In the next organ we make our own wooden keyboard.

Pipes in the background is just decoration.

Thanks for trying to understand my question.

Can you post a photograph onto this forum of the HWLCD from inside the console so I can see how you hold it in place?

In Polish
Można księgowania zdjęcie na tym forum HWLCD od wewnątrz konsoli tak widzę, jak trzymasz ją w miejscu?

I hope that is translated correctly as I don't wish to offend anyone!

Hhhhmmm... Insteresting! What makes you move to produce your keyboards by yourself? Is it you want to build your instruments from A to Z? Or is it you are not happy about Fatar quality? Maybe a mix of the two?

By the way, do you intend to produce those wooden keyboards for your instruments only, or is it expected you will also market them as is?

Thanks for your answer! 8)

Fatar keyboard quality is excellent. Especially considering their price. Next project is also done based on damaged pipe organ. Here we want to do renovation of the existing remains of keyboards.

We want to show the company has several finished works. If there will be potential customers can make to sell a few products. They will be, however, ready-made solutions. Consoles ready for working at home or in church. In the second case with a dedicated sound system of our production. We will not sell parts.
