Wicks Organ Co.
Opus 5442, 2017

Robert Cooper on December 13th, 2020:
Red River Pipe Organ Company of Norman, Oklahoma revised the instrument in 2020. The original Gemshorn, removed in 2018 for the installation of the Tenor C Principal, was returned to the organ; pipes 1-12 of this rank are vintage pipes added to this rank. The twelve pipes of the 16' Subbass were moved to the chancel wall and now speak into the chancel. A new Syndyne system was installed to greatly expand the total resources available.

Updated by G. Mark Caldwell, who maintains the organ.<br> The original Gemshorn rank was replaced in April 2018 with a 58-scale 4-foot Principal rank to give it more power to support (typically Lutheran) robust congregational singing.<br>There is discussion currently ongoing to return the original Gemshorn rank on an added chest to again have a soft stop, and to replace the existing Wicks electro-mechanical switching with a solid-state/digital system and new SAM units to accommodate the additional tonal assets and to have a few general combination action pistons.
