Swell chamber pipe work is 73 notes for all ranks, 183 pipes for the Mixture III. In the Great chamber the violoncello and the Rohr Flute are 73 note pipe work; everything else is 61 notes. As of October 2017, all windchests were rebuilt and completed by the Hunt Krewson Pipe organ services of Dayton. Double Primary actions on duplex windchests were rebuilt completely by the Columbia Organ Company in Pa.
