@analyzingfunny It' s called a registrant. Very common on the traditional mechanical organs and even on the electro-pneumatic organs they are a great help. Especially the ones with ADHD :)

That is what the combination action is for.

@analyzingfunny In the UK they are called the 'Registrant'.

@analyzingfunny "pull stop dude", I laughed so hard, made my day.

@analyzingfunny The title is "stop puller" just so that you know for future reference.

I agree with the man who may comment, not that Paul Jacobs played it better, but the size and pipes formation in Macy's is totally different than Crystal Cathedral. Crystal cathedrals vastness a football field size, greatly out ranks, Oregon in Macy's. Although it does have 32 to 33,000 pipes; Crystal Cathedral has 17,000, and a total array of trumpets; precisely located. To give an excellent sound, when needed. The hazel right organ. Is designed into 3great parts ;

@Tom1980nj Hey, no need the combination action when you have Mr Conte as the assistant, you just play, kind of like driving a 18-speed tractor-trailor and the one sitting "shot-gun" shifts all the gears for you

@Lochdiamont123 And from memory as well which made it even more amazing.

@analyzingfunny Peter Conte could be referred to as Bowden's "stop puller" or, more formerly, "registrant." It's always a tough job, assisting with registration is almost as important as playing the right notes!

Yeah, I'd visit this mall!
What is the title of the guy pulling the stops? And futhermore is there an old name for it? Like "pullstoppists" or "puller" "or plugger" or "pull stop dude" ??/

@analyzingfunny I don't even know how to reply to this!!?? The guy pulling the stops is Peter Conte, the Grand Court Organist. He was assisting Nick Bowden that day.
