Lakeside Pipe Organ

Click Here for MP3 Demos   [split] About Contents Kontakt Format Specifications Videos   The Lakeside Pipe Organ is a Rodgers steel and wooden pipe-electric hybrid organ located at the Lakeside Temple of Practical Christianity, in downtown Oakland, California. This large pipe organ produces its sound by venting mechanically compressed air (wind) through 850 resonant steel pipes and wooden reeds, arranged in 15 ranks. Each pipe produces sound at one fixed pitch, so they are provided in sets with one pipe or more per note, each set or stop having a common timbre and loudness throughout. The Lakeside Pipe Organ has multiple sets of pipes of differing timbre, pitch and loudness which the player can employ singly or in combination. The actual organ is made from three keyboards and a foot pedal board for bass notes, each of which controls its own group of stops. We recorded this grand instrument with Lakeside Temple Music Director and organist Don Sears.   The combination of these 6 different stops at various volumes allows for a dramatically wide range of tones. We also sampled release triggers for all notes, as well as additional foot basses, bells/chimes, and session recordings with effects, live organ demos and hall sounds. The UI comes packed with lots of great sound-shaping controls like swell, attack, release, offset, vibrato, filter, pitch (coarse & fine), articulation switching, cross-fading and layering, and so much more. The Advanced Control window adds additional options like an LFO with shape, target, speed, intensity, tempo-syncing and fade-in control. You can also choose from 12 low-pass, high-pass and FX filters, with assignable modulation targets such as velocity, modwheel, expression, key position and step-sequencer table control. The ARP system features a velocity sequencer and controls for arp direction, note timing, swing, randomization and duration. The new key and scale lock system allows for easy melodic composition and live performance. It's all rounded out by our modular FX rack window, with 18 different DSP effect modules that you can assign in any of 10 available slots, in any order that you wish. You’ll find classic phase, flanger, delay, distortion, amp and cab simulators, compressors, EQ, rotator and so much more. 6 Different Organ Settings (Wooden flutes stops 1 & 2, Steel Pipe stops 3, 4 & 5 and bass foot pedal board) Custom sound-shaping and advanced controls to give you complete creative freedom over every aspect of your sound. Close and Far microphone positions for all presets Long infinite sustaining notes and natural release samples Additional bell/chimes tuned percussion organ sfx stops Sound-designed ambiences and custom FX presets   This library is designed for the full retail version of Native Instruments Kontakt 5.5 or later.
