All samples in these sets are taken at 44.1kHz, 16 bit - much of the sampling was carried out before the advent of Hauptwerk version 2. Mic amp gain was carefully set to maximise the sampling resolution for the quieter samples.
The resulting waves were treated with noise reduction using Cool Edit Pro (both organs had a considerable amount of blower noise that needed removing). Further processing was carried out with Cool Edit Pro, Seamless Looper and with the organ preparation tool kindly made available by Crumhorn Labs.
The Little Waldingfield organ in particular has a fairly rudimentary wind supply. Real life recordings demonstrate a fair degree of winding instability and the organ definition file attempts to reproduce this to some degree. If it is found that the degree of winding variation is excessive, then (with the organ loaded) choose Organ settings... | General options... and (on the Wind Supply Model pane) reduce the Wind model modulation depth adjustment accordingly.
The organs have moderate random tuning errors set, again in the interests of realism. If these are found to be too extreme, the Random pipe detuning adjustment on the Audio Engine tab should be reduced.
You will find full download details on the order page. Shareware and fully licensed DVDs can be purchased there as well. Please note that all organs require Hauptwerk v2.1 (or higher).
