For churches, we are able to provide a loan instrument so that they can ascertain how a Hauptwerk installation might sound in their building. Alternatively, our music studio in Devon has a three manual instrument with 24 channels of amplification and speakers set up for would be purchasers to try out. Please contact us before visiting.

Sample Sets

We have been involved with church organs for over five decades. Initially working with conventional pipe organs, we moved into the world of pipeless instruments during their rapid technological expansion in the last quarter of the twentieth century.

With over 30 years experience in creating sample sets for organs for other digital organ manufacturers and since 2003, for the Hauptwerk software platform, we are one of the longest established sample set producers.

In addition to our "off the shelf" sample sets of existing or composite instruments, we also create custom instruments to suit individual requirements.

We have a library archive of many hundreds of stops to choose from. sampled from instruments throughout the UK and elsewhere.

We also supply sample sets and stops to several pipe organ builders throughout the world for use in hybrid instruments.

Hardware

We can supply everything that might be required for a pipeless organ installation from the basic console, amplification and speakers to the computers, software and audio interfaces needed.

The various components are sourced from a number of specialist established manufacturers and supply houses most of whom we have been involved with for many years.

In addition, we have a number of contacts both in the UK and abroad who specialise in obtaining and converting former consoles for use with the Hauptwerk platform.

N.B. Some sample sets may not work with basic older versions of Hauptwerk or the entry level version of the new Hauptwerk V and above because these editions do not include some of the features that are necessary for our libraries to work fully on the Hauptwerk platform.
