Love it!! Sounds great! I'm working on a design that uses PVC pipe for the flue instead of MDF like the Spanish did for Orgue Celra. Should be a blast. Where can I get the MIDI file for this recording?! Sounds great!!!
Most improbable! The music coming out of that collection of (albeit lovingly constructed) tubes and wires is just AMAZING! I build organs costing millions of dollars, but for pure fun I've never seen anything better. Pipes made of MDF! Keep it up, man. You're making a lot of people happy!
Just out of curiosity, have you ever looked at alternatives to regular pipes. I know that there is at least one organ out there that plays the pipes through water, a "burble organ" so to speak. For example, I've always wondered if it would be possible to tune whoopee cushions or pinched rubber membranes.
@CorvetteCoonass That's another idea, though I think traditional pipe organs can do a fair job of that. If I recall, what I was thinking was something more like the way kids will make squealing sounds with a balloon as they let the air out... or something to more closely reflect the way the mammalian voice box produces sound.

Love it! The MIDI interface makes it very versatile. I may put MIDI on mine sometime in the future.

In this organ it was all MDF apart from one piece.

Well done! The pipe layout gives Frank Gehry a run for his money :-) Look forward to the finished product.
