Crown Him with Many Crowns

I made an audio recording of my own arrangements in 2003 at the request of Church members. The Allen C6c is a great improvement over an old Hammond A-105. It looks small (26 stops) but with the MIDI Expander II and Virtual Acoustics it sounds much larger.

Is that the Harpsichord sound in there with the Trumpets? I played an Allen over the summer with a Harpsi. and Celesta stop on the swell (and it sounded just like 'em), but can't remember if the C6 has one!

No, I don't mix those sounds in with the pipes. That's likely the post-horn, a theater organ stop. Seems it's caused a bit of a sticky wicket. I did use the harpsichord and glock, and I'll post it when I get some time.

I wish I could afford one in my small condo !! and with AGO curved pedals .. It packs a lot into a small console. Now is could fit a four manual Quantum in here ..I'd be set !! Great playing .. post some more if you can.

I want one, too, but they are hard to find because nobody wants to sell theirs.

I keep listening to this, and the reed sound is almost sort of 'Crumhorn' sounding at the opening.

One of my favorite reed instruments, and organ stops come to think of it. John

The post horn is fortissimo and piercing. The swell reed is a bright trompette that is not so thin and loud, but of the same tonal design. Thanks for the encouragement. I have RA and it is getting more difficult to play. I will post a hymn that uses the crumhorn, using the same photos, since that's all I have.

Low quality?!? Are you kidding?!? This organ sounds awesom1 Great! Extraordinary! Shall I go on?

I meant that tuttiorgan's comment was stupid. My apologies to accousticdelay. Mr. Mark Tuttiorgan seems to make a living out of ragging on everyone, he must be an "expert"....

I have really enjoyed you playing! Thanks so much!

Nice playing acoustics. I enjoyed this. Your Allen is not soo bad. I think electonic organs have moved up from "toasters" to real "instruments" and it takes a good musician to get a good sound out of them. 5/5. Thanks for posting!
