Here’s what they have to say about it:
We sampled a Pipe Organ built in the year 1850 in Artà’s church (a little village on the island of Mallorca, Spain). The pipes are controlled by a wood keyboard of 54 keys (from C1 to F5).
Sustain and release notes sampled, which means that you have the natural reverb tail of the church, it’s amazing! No pitch shifting (note interval) used, sampled every note.
This Pipe Organ has 8 ranks selectable by 16 stops (8 right and 8 left). With 1850 Pipe Organ Pro you can control the volume of each rank separetly, making the instrument very versatile and flexible, you can achieve an enormous amount of different sounds. On the free version you only get the sound of the 8 ranks opened without control on each of them. Free version lets you control the overall volume and the volume of the tail reverb directly from the GUI. With Pro version you can control the overall volume, pan and each rank directly from the GUI.
GUI has been designed by Cocavet, rendered in 3D. Note that the stop knobs are identical to the real thing.
Kontakt 4.2.3 needed to load the library. You don’t have Kontakt? No problem, 1850 Pipe Organ is available now for Audio Units and VST (Mac and Windows 32 and 64 bits). That means that you can load them directly into your DAW as a plugin.
Each format is sold separetly.
1850 Pipe Organ is available now for 19.95 EUR. A free version is also available.
