WELCOMES YOU TO
THE N. I. WEBSITE
LAST SITE UPDATE 10 MAY
2008 |
The organ for the Parish Church of St. Patrick, Drumbeg, has
now been in for well over a year. It has been an unqualified success in
every aspect, and all that hear it - and play it - would agree that it is
probably the best digital organ in the area. The console is one of the best we
have produced and is innovative in that, although the organ is still in the
old well, we made the console actually sit on the floor around the well.
This does two things - it reduces the perceived height of the console, making
it look much more elegant in its proportions, and it also avoids having the
small but necessary gap between the console sides and the edge of the well.
We also continued the console panelling around the treble end and the back
of the player to provide some screening for the organist - and to stop wayward
children (and adults!) from falling over the edge and into the abyss which
contains the pedals...
We are also doing some more practice organs, two three manuals
and a two manual.
We have branched out into supplying coupling and transmission
systems to several local organ building firms, where the flexibility of our
system has been a deciding factor in its choice.
We are also involved in the digital enhancement of two fairly
prominent pipe organs in the province
We have decided to make our entire recorded catalogue available
online (mostly as 160k mp3 files), because these days most people have
access to broadband internet connections, and download time is not as big
an issue as it was a few years ago. It is also a fact of life that people tend
to want things "now" rather than wait for "tomorrow", and this will help to
placate persons of that persuasion (and my family would tell you that I
definitely belong to that category). You can now browse our entire
catalogue on the Audio Page
