Carlo: We did the project at Bel Air Presbyterian Church, here in LA. The 67 rank Casavant and the Rodgers blend perfectly. See if you can get a CD of this organ...you'll see that the combination works beautifully. Your Rodgers dealer should have one he can give you.

Right now, the full organ sounds like it should in a major basilica, and with a full house (2500 people), it's still loud, even if people are talking! First of all, there are no 16' manual stops anywhere, and I want some. I want more reeds in the swell. I want more 8' stops in the swell and choir. I want 32' stops in the pedal, as well as a mixture. Like I said before, I'd like the total ranks to go from 45 to about 80 or so. This has to be done right, since both pipes and digital will be playing in tandem, and I don't want there to be any difference. I want people to think it's all pipes playing! > > Carlo Pietroniro > St. Patrick's Basilica > Montreal, Quebec > 3m Casavant Opus 60, 1895 > Rodgers 960 at home > > > > > :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :::::::: > Find Music for the Rodgers PR-300 at www.frogmusic.com > :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :::::::: > To unsubscribe or change mail delivery (digest, vacation) > go to our website at www.frogmusic.com/rodgers.html > > > :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: Find Music for the Rodgers PR-300 at www.frogmusic.com :::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: To unsubscribe or change mail delivery (digest, vacation) go to our website at www.frogmusic.com/rodgers.html
