Frequently Asked Questions About Classical Organs (2 Manuals)
Look for adjustable key resistance and a mechanism that simulates the 'let-off' characteristic of pipe organ keys. Try playing scales and arpeggios to assess the feel.
Drawstops emulate the stops on a pipe organ, allowing for manual control over individual voice combinations and tonal shaping. Responsive drawstop control is crucial for expressive playing.
The speaker system significantly impacts the perceived realism of the organ sound. Consider the number of speakers, their placement, and their ability to reproduce the full dynamic range of the instrument.
