Noorlander Organ

I have a Noorlander Praeludium that sits in my living room. It runs Hauptwerk: a program that takes midi input and plays back recordings from actual organs. The recordings are made one pipe at a time, then Hauptwerk mixes together whichever keys and stops are enabled. The folks who make the recordings love all the little nuances of organs and thus include things like:

• the ambient sound of the room with the blowers on
• the physical sound of the keys as they move
• the ca-thunk when stops are pulled or cancelled

I use the organs

• Caen from Sonus Paradisi
• Rotterdam from Sonus Paradisi
