The UK's leading Digital Church Organ specialist
On a lovely April spring day, we had exclusive use of St Kenelm’s Church Enstone to film a much more detailed presentation of our popular Envoy 35-F church and home practice instrument. The particular model we used having been ‘upgraded’ to provide sub and super swell octave couplers. Francis Rumsey in charge As ever the…

On the video produced you will hear almost all stops individually demonstrated and also their use in the choruses to which they belong. This will…

I was delighted to get a request from the PianoCzarX to use the soundtrack from one of our organ videos for his next keyboard animation. The Elgar Chanson de Matin arranged for organ is presented in a very appealing visual way on this video. Seeing the actual note pattern presented may actually help with understanding…

I write this on a slightly sad day having returned from playing for the funeral of my local church organist. She had reached the age of 80 and had played at St Mary’s Helmdon for almost 40 years. So another vacancy on the bench has opened up with precious few candidates willing or otherwise to…

D’Arcy Trinkwon is a well-known concert organist with recital work all over the world. For a long time he has also had a Viscount 3 manual organ at home for practice. In 2014 he very kindly agreed to make a DVD on our instrument at Selby Abbey. This would help publicise the fund raising programme…

I can hardly believe 5 years has passed since we produced our last demonstration DVD! Since then we have introduced 2 new organ ranges. New Chorum and Sonus range Chorum with a more detailed sample library has replaced the Cadet range of instruments. Specifically for home practice, the Sonus range with a greatly enlarged internal…

This has coincided with many posts on social media made by owners explaining just how useful and good this little instrument is. It struck me that the time was well overdue for us to make an ‘official’ presentation to help a…

This enables the Viscount Digital Organ to be manipulated in just the same way as a pipe voicer would approach an organ pipe. As most of our customers owning a physical modelling organ know these instruments allow a…

The 2017 series was recorded at the lovely medieval church of St Mary’s Chalgrove. I chose this church partly because it is close to our base in Bicester but also because it is of a fairly typical size of the parish church in which we install our organs and especially as it has some of…

In the last weeks before Christmas I have been listening to the previews of Hymn of the Month and the Regent Classic Tutorial videos. To speed up the process of review the files are sometimes ‘compressed’ by the various delivery systems in differing ways and I have been conscious for the first time of how…
