DETAILS
This instrument is: Extant and Playable in this location
In 2007 St. Mary’s replaced its old organ console with a new three-manual Allen Heritage model. The instrument is an acoustic/digital hybrid blending pipe ranks from the earlier Gress-Miles organ with electronic voices ranging from 32-foot pipes to orchestral instruments. The pipe installation phase was completed by the Faucher Organ Company. Their work on the organ included the building of a new five-stop Great chest, a five-stop Swell chest, a new winding system, and a solid-state relay system allowing the console to control the pipe chests.
The three-manual organ console was designed by Burton Tidwell and installed by Lee Stadale. The console controls both the acoustic pipes and electronic voices distributed among 25 audio channels amplified by a 900-watt sound system. Also included are 256 MIDI voices which include 128 general MIDI sounds, along with 94 Allen-sampled orchestral instruments. The orchestral specification is perfect for blended worship.
