Now that is awesome! A "portable" console! That's like using a joy stick to control the speed and direction of an ocean going container ship! I'd like to learn how that little rig there interfaces to the organ. So Cool.
One thing I like about this organ is even though it is quite romantic in its tonal design (which I like very much), the principals have a certain "singing" quality that I imagine is effective for baroque music
Wow pedals to manual is quite devastating for the left hand at least! Perhaps King's should ask for a secret coupler 'Pedal to Great', would be interesting to have the 32' reed available on the Great for a final flourish - certainly power to the little finger at 3:04!
ds1868 the Klais organ where l play on has it. it plays the lowest note from al the one l press. l don't use it often, because it doesn't sound so very wel:)
***** Yes, I didn't see his comment. I never use it cause I never have any reason to do so, I feel like it's supposed to be for pianists who can't play the pedals but still want a good bass background. What's my association? I am No. 85 Merlin!
Was anything specific being played at the beginning? It had a very majestic sound to it and I quite liked it. Wonder if he was actually playing part of a song .
The reverb in that room is MAGNIFICENT
Im lucky to have been able to attend service at this church as much as i have, and for that i am grateful
Andy is the best of the best!
Such a satisfying sound. The instrument and building work in perfect harmony.

I want to forward this to my cousin who has helped install organs in Virginia, USA. What a nice sound. Thanks.
Fabulous ! It's sounding magnificent even though the tuning isn't finished yet.
Amazing! Kudos to all the technicians
Hearing this instrument in person should be on my bucket list, which is getting to look more like a #4 washtub, to be honest.
Excellent.
(And that wonderful reverberation!!)
What a dream job..
Wow! That last chord!
Well done Andy!
great chorus sounds nice and refined and not overkill
Such a beautiful voicing of the organ

This is a good series of videos on the organ project. The only bad part is when I compare the jobs of these guys to my own. Depressing!
tell me about it!!
Excellent. Now, what about that other switch at the end? (After a hot day of voicing, "Organ Builder to Pub")
Looks interesting, such a DIY ducttape and tieraps console connected to a massive pipe organ :D Certainly a unique situation worldwide.

I think I need a bumper sticker for my car that says, "Power to the little finger"
ds1868 some Allen organs have a bass coupler that plays the pedal with the lowest note on the great

Richard Harrold Yes, but the melodic coupler only couples up the lowest note which is being played.

Oh it is rough, it's till be lovely to hear when done.
I'll look to see if Carols from Kings is sill on BBC iPlayer

If I'm not mistaken this church is the exact place(I think) where Doctor strange(movie) taped
Cool accent!
