FULL INFO BELOW:

The Italian Concert Organ is a faithfully reproduced church organ with individual ranks and combinations, in addition to an exceptional sound engine able to restore harmonics, environment, mechanical noise and even more, in a completely customizable way.

NOW AT VERSION 2
Old digitally-built combinations were recreated on the real organ and really resampled at 96kHz!The resampling has been done using different couples of microphones from multiple positions, giving now detail and absolute fideltyNow there arent simultaneous voices, so polyphony has been reduced to 32 notes (256 on multi modes), reducing high CPU usagePitch is now perfect: the resampling has been done the day after the instrument pitching; now its possible to combine various patterns without pitch issuesMaster limiter corrected to be transparent and powerful at the same timePattern volume managed listening to a song played on the original organ, recorded using our microphone configurationMinor bugs fixed

TOUCH MODE
Recommended for all owners of single MIDI controller with a touchscreen. The controls are optimized for touch. Pressing and releasing the sustain pedal you can select sequentially the 16 patterns, while the Modulation controller switches to the other 16 patterns. In the middle is displayed the name of the pattern.

FOOT MODE
Especially developed for all owners of single MIDI controllers that have a common monitor and scroll through the chosen patterns without taking hands off from the keyboard. With this mode, the user can store up to 8 patterns and call them by pressing and releasing the sustain pedal.

Example: for my song I need sequentially the patterns 2, 5, 6 variated, 12, 15. For this purpose, I select the first (2). Once selected, I press S to store it in SLOT 1. Then I press the SLOT button and I see SLOT 2, then Im going to choose the second pattern (5) and hit S to save it.

Now we press SLOT button again to move to the SLOT 3 and memorize the third pattern (6 with V). And so on. Once done, you just press and release the sustain pedal to cycle through the stored patterns, in a continuous loop.

You can store ONLY the pattern numbers and NOT the advanced settings like reverb. At the center is displayed the name of the selected pattern in the first red line, and the next pattern is in the second red line. The C button erases everything that has been stored.

MULTI COMBO MODE
Developed to combine the patterns. Its possible to combine up to 8 patterns, all on the same channel. It is as if the instrument was opened 8 times, each of which is customizable.

MULTI CHANNEL MODE
Developed for all owners of virtual organ console with no more than 3 keyboards and a pedal. Its possible to combine up to 2 patterns with every controller. The keyboards have to be set on channels 1, 2, 3 and the pedal on channel 4. However, the channels are still editable from the Kontakt interface.
