Hello Les,
(I've put the topic here, being the best place I could think of for it!)
Yes -- it would be possible to do something similar within a 'full format' organ definition file (but not within the Custom Organ Design Module directly, although you could tweak its compiled output). In essence you could probably either:
- Send the wind from the blower through a WindCompartmentLinkage object with WindCompartmentLinkage .ValveControlTypeCode and WindCompartmentLinkage .ValveControllingContinuousControlID set to be an appropriate continuous control. That would allow you to 'throttle' the flow, but (unless throttled extremely) it wouldn't significantly affect the static wind pressure if there are down-stream regulators, since they should normally regulate the pressure from it (if so plumbed). (However, the same would probably be true for a real blower with speed control.) Or:
- Use a similar WindCompartmentLinkage to bleed off output from a regulator or wind-chest, or:
- You might be able to come up with some sort of special arrangement of modified/connected regulator(s) using WindCompartment.PressureOutputContinuousControlID and/or WindCompartment.Bellows_ExtensionSettingContinuousControlID and/or WindCompartment.Bellows_ExtensionOutputContinuousControlID, possibly linked together via ContinuousControlLinkages and/or WindCompartmentLinkages.
The sample set creator's guide covers the wind model objects and attributes in depth.
