right now, I play a 3-manual Casavant (where I work). We're thinking of doing
some work on it, and I was thinking (bad idea). Whenever I think, it ends up
costing someone a LOT of money!
Here's what I was thinking....
Right now the organ has 3 manuals, 34 stops, and 45 ranks. I'd like to add more
stops.....LOTS more actually. I know it's possible to have a Rodgers console
connected, but is it possible to have a 4-manual console, and have the 4th
manual (solo division or whatever), digital? Also, can digital stops be added
to the existing 3 manuals? Basically, I'd like to have a total of 4 manuals.
Naturally, there's a lot of work involved here, such as where to put the
speakers so the sounds will appear to come from the pipes. There's also the
problem of the digital ranks staying in-tune, while the actual pipes go out of
tune, as organs do from time to time.
Please tell me what's involved here. How long the work would take, etc....
