What is up with the delayed attack on the last few chords? The reed chorus sounds a little "Alleny", but over all, it sounds really good. A lot better than the Allen at my friend's church!

@Pharaun317; it's just the way the video camera records. I'm using a small Flip/HD camera. It serves its purpose but really does some weird sort of things with the sound, especially in this application. It also obliterates most of the pedal and on this organ it makes the room shake.

Yes, it sounds very well - *over the computer's speakers.* (Let's not forget we're listening to a speaker cone, and NOT and organ.)

Great playing and amazing Allen! One of the better Allens on youtube. Would love to hear that one in person!

That's one of the nicer digital organs on youtube. I love the detail of the wood drawknobs and coupler tabs. the voicing is not bad either. The principals are nice and bright. The organ is not dull or muddy at all. It has a bright and full sound. I bet it sounds even better in the room. How many channels of audio are there?

@organman0921 The Allen at my church is horrid, but it is the fault of the installation and the voicing. The organ itself could sound pretty decent with an adequate speaker setup and some competent voicing. Weather that will happen is sadly out of my hands. A lot of times, a dealer will do a poor job installing an organ and churches are stuck with a considerable investment in something that is not very musical.

This organ however, is quite good.

Very nice sound. I am a "Rodgers" guy, but this sounds really fantastic. Allen really has come a long way in sound. We purchased an Allen in 1991 for our previous church in and it was terrific. After that, the sound of the Allen organs seemed to go downhill until recently. I think they are really great sounding instruments now.

I am impressed! Allen organ company always seem to be way ahead of their competitors in technology. In my home parish, I have played on a real pipe organ and from listing to this video, I can tell that the digital sampling is very well produced to the real thing.
