[jOrgan-user] [ANN] Möller Opus 3864, 1924

[Paul Stratman-2]

This is the first release of an organ that I recorded myself!

The Möller organ of Zion Lutheran Church in Cambria, Wisconsin is from an
era of organbuilding that reflects influence of theater organ building.
Though small (only 7 ranks) it is capable of many orchestral effects.

More information on Möller Opus 3864 is available here:

Download from the new Zion Möller Opus 3864 page:

One note, it seems the Fluidsynth soundfont engine doesn't like umlauts or
directories/folders with umlaut letters. Therefore, some files spell Möller
as "Möller" and others as "Moller." It's not a mistake, but intentional to
make the soundfont recognized by Fluidsynth.

Special thanks to Dr. Mark Bujega for suggestions on the appearance of the
disposition screen and some adjustments to some of the organ sounds, and to
Al Schroer for history of Möller organs and technical information on how the
"Soft Wind" mechanism works to reduce the volume from a Bourdon to a
Lieblich Gedackt.

Have fun!

Paul

Absolutely wonderful Paul! Outstanding job! The effects such as blower etc
are wonderful as well and compliment the instrument very well.

Cudos to you and welcome to the club of reconstructing organs with real
recordings and the challenges and rewards.

Best to you -

Al

Paul,

Thank you for all the hard work involved in making this new VPO available to
us. Very nicely presented.
Was it really recorded on January 29th, 2016, as stated in the pdf? I can't
imagine how you managed to put it together in only 18 days!

John Reimer

[Dr Mark Bugeja MD]

I just wonder how my surname must sound in many people's ears! I shudder at
the thought! ()

For the record... my surname is Bugeja (Boo - Jay - ah). (No need for any
apology Paul )

Having said that I was honoured to have been asked and ultimately be able to
help an expert in the field of virtual organs such as Paul Stratman!

Best regards to all!
Mark

An apology (but not for misspelling).

I uploaded a minor update to the Möller which actually introduced some
looping issues.

A corrected download package has now been uploaded.

Paul
