David Bailey plays Merv's Miditzer 2

This is a Conn 652 organ converted with MIDI interface to computer.
The computer is running Miditzer 260SP (www.virtualorgan.com) software which is what is called a Virtual Theatre Pipe Organ. All the sound is triggered in the computer and sent out through the sound card line output. In this case the sound is then going through a home cinema sound system and comming through 4x speakers and a sub woofer.

Great video,

David is a great organist.

I've got j-organ with Bruce Miles 3 manual Wurlitzer console and soundfont (going through fluid-synth) I which play via my Yamaha EL7 organ's midi out.

Hi Ben, thanks for your comment. Have you tried the "Christie" 3 manual disposition I have created for jOrgan using Bruce Miles' Compton soundfont for Fluidsynth?

This is the default Miditzer 260SP with Bruce Miles Soundfont.

Thanks for your comment Organgrinder. The whole afternoon was a feast of good organ music played on a very impressive instrument. It just shows how computers can add to our enjoyment of even old fashioned pleasures.

I know that the already great sounding transistorized theater organs sound so much better when playing through a good tube amp &/or Leslie, but I wonder if it would thicken and warm a virtual organ. Anyone have any examples. Also I bet a couple of Allen Gyrophonics would help out too. I mean what is it with people being totally old school or totally new school? In 1,000 organ uploads to my playlists I've yet to see anyone with a Leslie or even a tube amp and vintage speakers on a virtual organ.

I really love this, both for the wonderful music and the ingenuity. 5 stars.
