Kimball organ pedalboard light portable#
Old model Vintage Kimball Syntha Swinger 1500 Entertainer II. Best Possible Solution: To create a portable interface that will bridge the gap between the stock New B-3 pedal board and any MIDI device. Kimball Syntha Swinger 1500 Entertainer II(2) organ - $250 (london).Of course, the keyboards of the original theatre organs with electro-pneumatic consoles did not possess a "snap", but since this is very soft with the above mentioned keyboards I do not consider this helpful rather than a disturbing addition. It might thuis be necessary to replace th 61 coil springs at the key ends by harder ones and also distinguish with their hardness between natural and sharp keys. But note that the touch is extremely light and the keys may not quickly enough come up again. If you want to take out the strip (for a few keys as a test) you can do this. it helps you to not only hear but also to feel when the key is halfway depressed an the sound is triggered via MIDI. I would not take out the strip for the "snap" effect as this assists a little your touch, i.e. If you plan to go with FATAR keyboards I would choose the TP/60LF model ("F" stands for the front shape of the keys). What I mean is that the keys sink in with little weight and there is not much more needed to pass the "snap" point.Ĭontrary, the key weight for real tracker touch is much harder - see for example some diagrams at the site for Schwindler keyboards. the key weight) of their models beginning with "TP/60L" is still very soft when you compare it to pipe organs with mechanical action. On the FATAR web site you can check which modles have got the "snap" and which not.

In principle you could remove the strip which shall simulate the "snap" point of tracker touch. All signals from the console were transmitted by an electric cable to an electro-pneumatic relay, and from there to the pipes and effects in the organ chambers. This action allowed the console to be physically detached from the organ. Hope-Jones' electro-pneumatic action eliminated this by using wind pressure, controlled by electric solenoids, to operate the pipe valves, and solenoids and pistons to control and operate the various stop tabs, controls, keys and pedals on the console. Up to the turn of the 20th century, all pipe organs were operated by a tracker, tubular pneumatic, or pneumatic Barker-lever action, where the keys and pedals were physically connected to the pipe valves via wooden trackers, except in the case of tubular pneumatic, where all actions were operated by air pressure. The electro-pneumatic action was invented by Robert Hope-Jones, and is considered by many to be the single most significant development in pipe organs.
