Bob,
I know there will some good suggestions for you from list members.
As a starter, I would suggest you do everything you can do to keep your
local Rodgers representative involved in providing quotes and information.
Having worked as a Möller sales engineer, I can assure you that the cost
of adding MIDI to the console and adding ranks to the organ may well be
comparable to adding a Rodgers console and ranks to the organ if a
console rebuild is involved in the project.
In today's church , it makes much sense to begin with a complete digital
spec, and then add pipes if they can be purchased. This gives you the
ability to play literature using stops that fit it, and also access
contemporary sounds as required to fulfill the needs of contemporary
worship if they become your congregation.
No one would suggest that you hire a string orchestra to provide a
string line to a contemporary chorus...in the same manner, having a
digital instrument to fulfill the needs of the organ literature in a
satisfying and exciting manner for the congregation makes a lot of
sense. If your congregation is fortunate enough to be able to interface
the pipes you have and more with this organ, it would be satisfying to all.
