A rather handy picture came up at 1:25 in this YouTube clip which explained a few things for me:

Thanks for those tips. Looks like I am going to have to assign myself a memory level.

I'm trained on classical organ, so the controls of...

Sounds like I need to learn how to do the layering. I don't like the preset sounds.

I was able to access the menus (it has a small touch-screen)...

If space is an issue, consider building an organ of two ranks: 8' Bourdon and 4' Principal. The bourdon is a stopped rank and is only half length....

[hartleymartin]

A few years ago I started a thread about the possibility of building a home organ. I acquired some pipes (not enough for the whole organ but a start)...

The only external audio that I have access to is the phones plug under the right-hand side of the console. I would probably have to put this through a...
