Hi all,

As a new Rodgers owner (i.e., the church owns but you all know what I =
mean),
the sound of this organ is simply indescribably beautiful!!!  I find =
myself
finishing the first practice runs of musical pieces sitting back in =
wonder
at the beauty of the sounds coming out of the instrument.  And to make
things even better, the congregation FINALLY notices that the organist =
is
playing!

Hi,

Digital Nerve Pulses"

The nerve impulses are somewhat digital, but not fully. All powered by a =

chemical reaction using sodium and calcium ions. The basilar membrane is =

frequency dependent based on location: different frequencies excite =3D
different locations. Very interesting how we hear!

Think of the huge amount of information entailed in music:

0 to 120 dB is a dynamic range of one million to one

20 to 20,000 Hz is a frequency range that's a range of ten thousand to =
one

and we can formants, noise, and timing simultaneously and organize it to =

hear music.

What an amazing thing!

Re: delaminating console

As far as the console, the dealer said it was under warranty and we'd =
see =3D
if it continued. I don't think he wanted to pay for the labor to =
transplant=3D
the guts into the new console. He carried the warranty over to the =
person =3D
I sold it to, and I hope it either stabilized or the dealer finally =
fixed =3D
it. I moved out of the area, which is why I sold the instrument, and =
lost =3D
touch with the new owner.

The dealer has since sold his business, so I don't feel a need to warn =
=3D
people about him.

I'll tell you though, if the new Rodgers sound anything like my C-180, =
=3D
they must be wonderful to play.
