The first twelve notes of the Grand Orgue Bourdon 16 are on an EP chest. The rest of the organ is on straight slider chests.

Database Manager on November 16th, 2004:

The original plan did not call for a Full Organ piston, and a reversible toe stud for the Clochettes was installed where one normally expects a Full Organ toe stud to be. Two months later, the Clochettes toe stud was moved to the opposite side of the knee board, and a Full Organ toe stud installed. There is still no Full Organ thumb piston on the organ.
