So is it like one of those play pianos where you feed the sheet in or are you actualyl holding each note?

It's like a player piano. The holes in the paper determine which notes play, and when. You just turn the crank. You can control the tempo by how fast you turn the crank.

How does that work lol?
AirHendrix91 3 years ago
Turning the crank does two things. First, air is pumped into a reservoir. Part of the air goes into an air tight box with a roll of paper with holes punched in it. The rest of the air waits to be directed to the organ pipes by valves. Turning the crank also causes the paper roll to move over a tracker bar, where the holes in the paper cause the valves to open according to the tune.

What exactly do the 5 levers on the right do?

There are five sets of melody pipes. Stopped flute, stopped flute celeste, piccolo, open flute, violin. The five stop knobs let me select which pipes play.
The stopped flute and celeste (tuned sharp) are played together to create a warbling effect, known as the "Dutch" organ sound.

Nice! I've been reading a lot about this organ. It would be really nice to hear more clips of your organ once you're done working on it.

Holy crap! That's amazing. Especially if you made it entirely yourself. From what I know, making these is becoming a dying art. I'd love to have one of these (or make one). I will check out the website for sure.

It plays paper rolls. It really has more bass than the recording sounds like. Am planning to add bells but not drums.
