Virtual Theatre Organ Delay

This video shows a delay of 160 milliseconds applied to the audio out of a Hauptwerk Theatre Organ during live playing. 160 ms is about 181 ft of sound through air at 78 F.

It is added to simulate the delay you could find playing the organ in a large theatre like the Detroit Fox. It is good for practicing.

Here is a video of Dave Calendine playing the Fox Wurlitzer that shows the same kind of delay.

The bad sound in this video of noodling is just coming out of 2 inch computer speakers because I was too lazy to fire up the better sounding larger "organ" speakers tonight. It is also turned way down so the keyboard noises can be heard better in this video. That way it is easy to hear the organ plays after the keys are pressed since the video might not be in sync with audio in a youtube movie. The loudest clicks are when the keys are released, not when they are pressed.

Which Hauptwerk theatre organ is this? The Paramount WurliTzer or the Virginia Theatre Wurly?

@tregnier279 This is the Jensen 3/35 coming out of tiny 2 inch computer speakers. The sound in this video is not representative of the high quality of the samples when played through larger "organ" speakers. It is much much better with the other speakers.

I was too lazy at 2 AM (or whatever time it was) to turn on my entire sound organ sound system.

@tregnier279 Neil Jensen samples, not Paramount, not Virginia
