Hi Everyone,</P>


I just wanted to introduce myself to this forum. I just started lurking about here recently.</P>


My name is Bob Collins and I am in Spokane, Washington. I have built my first virtual pipe organ (for my home church) using Hauptwerk software. I retrofitted a Conn Classic 825 console with a custom built 2-manual midi stack and dual touch screen stops control. My website is zionorgan.com and there you can see the organ at http://zionorgan.com/Organs/ZionOrganOpus1.htm</P>


An example of the organ's tonal quality can be heard by listening to this room recording http://zionorgan.com/temp/BWV659-R0D...oom2_24-48.wav. For this recording I placed two Rode NT1A microphones in the nave about 50 feet from the organ which is a gallery position inthe rear choir loft.</P>


I am always on the lookout for vintage drawknob consoles and I will travel 500 plus miles to retrieve one. But I'm only willing to pay for a console, not an organ, if you know what I mean. So non-working and bad sounding is a plus :)
I am also in the market for quality 3 manual stacks and 32-note AGO spec pedalboards.</P>


Hopefully I can contribute to this community,</P>


Best Regards,</P>

Mr. Collins,</P>


Visited your website. Truly a nice-sounding instrument. You've done a good job, and I'm sure the Hauptwerk users on this forum will be quite interested in your work.</P>


Welcome to the forum, and I hope your time on this forum is time well-spent.</P>
