When I designed the organ for the Delight Castle Ballroom,I had a "player roll" system installed in the organ case just behind the console.It works like a player piano roll and allows the organ to play by itself(after all,I don't intend to spend my whole time at PBB just ticklein g the ivories!).Here's a video that shows pretty much what the organ console looks like with a roll going. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rIGzzucvkto |

*nods* It's one of the hardest instruments to play by a long shot.All the registers & couplers you have to know to get just the right sound out of those pipes takes years of practice. |
