David Bailey plays Merv's Miditzer 1

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.

what is midi for? what does it do?



[greenfox4075]

MIDI is a digital communications function on modern musical equipment. It can be retrofitted to older keyboard equipment as in this situation. In this virtual organ application, MIDI sends messages from the organ console about which notes are being played. (no sound comes from the organ). These messages go to a computer, the computer creates the sounds for the keys being played. The sounds are sent out of the soundcard of the computer to a surround sound audio system. search - virtual organ

Sounds like the Bruces Miles Sfs out of the box, and he must be really proud to hear his work worldwide. Bravo!!!

It certainly is the standard Bruce Miles SoundFonts straight "out of the box". I think Bruce has done a wonderful job with his SoundFonts, and Jim Henry with Miditzer to make it easy to drive the virtual ranks.

I played a conn 651 for 7 years in a cinema loved it

HArd to tell its a computer program, well unless you see the small screen.

But looks so realistic.

Sounds great. I have a 650 console and can't decide to sell it or midify it. I also have a Yamaha HX 1 for playing the Miditzer 216. I can add a keyboard for playing the 260. Trying to decide what to do with the 650.

But this is a nice set-up you have. Good playing.

[Fergophone]

A great sound, well done.
