You'd better add that Porche to your Christmas list! I like the technical content of the video, if only for the knowledge that you're helping people out 🙂
I think this was an excellent balance - something for everyone - great to see how you approach setting up an organ and the mixer; tips on scoped pistons; and excellent tips on speaker placement. Of course we all loved being brough along for that trip in the car! Amazing! Fantastic video R - lucky new console owner and to have an expert set it up like that :) Awesome!!!
Thank you Richard. I love all of your expert technical organ and audio information. And the demo ride in the Electric Porsche was an extra special treat. Weee!
@@richmcveigh Yup, it must be absolutely crazy! I only know the „normal“ 911’s with their ~4 second 0-60 and this already feels fast. The Taycan is actually being built here in the Porsche Leipzig facility! 😀
Really enjoyed watching you set up this Hauptwerk Organ and I learned a lot. Oh how I’d love to have a Hauptwerk set up at my own home, but I am lucky that the Church I play at where I practice organ is super close to my house. Great video!
Electric cars are truly incredible and just get more so every day! And cost almost nothing to power up and run. Even less if you have your own solar panel dedicated for it at home. The electric Ford pickup in the States is faster at acceleration and power than it’s gas equivalent, and its all-wheel drive so you’ll never get stuck as long as one wheel has traction.
Thanks Richard. I wish the next version of Hauptwerk was more straightforward and easier to set up especially the everyday stuff that needs to be set up just to get it to work in a basic way.
Great video! Years ago I had a trial version of Hauptwerk, and I remember some areas of confusion with their conventions. But once I had things set up -- the SOUND!!!! WOW! And I only had one little MIDI controller keyboard!
I do have to wonder if you’d be willing to do something like today’s video project, but over in the States. Do you know if the builders of your own personal console, and your speakers, can also build for the US electrical system? It’s a tad different from yours. 110 volt instead of 220 and one of us is 50 hz while the other is 60 hz. I always forget which is which. But I do seriously love the detail that went into your console, especially the use of the magnetic devices for touch. I just can’t imagine anyone over here building that quality. If I do this, I’d be building a sizable stone room for it, think Chapel sized, and would want it to be Dudelange only with the stops set up permanently. Obviously, I’d want you to stay and do the inaugural dedicatory recital for some select guests. I’d also see to it that you got booked onto the Fine Arts series for a recital at my church (4 manual, 94 rank Casavant). Not this calendar year, but does that fall into something you’d consider?
Bobby, my son and I are Pipe organ builders and manufacture hauptwerk systems as we progress and when we can afford it! We have no money and survive on a daily basis on a pension at present! As I am also an electronics engineer, I can say that there is no problem obtaining or manufacturing any power supply to suit your system. All is readily available and you can even purchase high current step down our step up transformers easily from ebay. Switched mode power supplies come these days with automatic conversion by power sensing the voltage, or manual selection via a physical switch to select between 110/240v. The phase difference of 10hz between your states, should not make much difference except will need possible filtering in the power supply circuit board. PS: we dont make any profit from any of this and most of our pipe organ tuning and repairs etc is done as a service to God. I am not liked by other australian pipe organ builders in Victoria and have been tuning for over 46 years both in Australia and overseas.
This was an interesting video on so many levels. I have never done anything with Hauptwerk so it was great to see some of its inner workings, so to speak, along with everything goes goes into a "proper" home installation. The ride in the car was fun, too. I've a friend who refers to that kind of sudden, powerful acceleration which puts you back in the seat as being "neatly pressed," 🤣
Great video! And absolutely loved the arrangement of Rey's Theme for organ (around 11:00). Couldn't find it on your webshop, but hope I can buy it somewhere! :)
Brain explodes! I have a Viscount Cantorum Trio and Hauptwerk 7. I have stereo outs going to a powered PA with subs and cabs, essentially stereo. I plan to use a Paramount Theatre organ (I have the free version now) with three manuals, and various 3 manual pipe organs, using free versions for now. My simple setup obviates the need for more complex set up. My dream organ is an Allen TO-5G, seeing the complexity of setting up Hauptwerk with many speaker layers, it may be worth the cost premium! lol Cheers!
Great educational video. I had no idea there was that much fine tuning of the program! I was wondering about the speakers. Are they powered through an internal amplifier in the console, or is there an audio out, such as Toslink to a receiver? And how many audio channels. It would be great if it would output in Dolby Atmos! You could easily add the effect speakers to those 9060’s!
Excellent video Richard, thank you! Hauptwerk seems unnecessarily complicated in places. I will use this video when I finally get my organ console and speakers sorted out but don't hold your breath. I bought my second electric car 2 years ago, not as fast as the Taycan electric but still a hoot to drive and for me really cheap to run as I charge at home.
How're you going to accomplish these changes now that I think about it I should never challenge you you can do whatever you want you're the organ master after all 😂
Hi. I see you have a lot of knowledge about Hauptwerk. How are your organs run? Maybe you know how to configure the program to run after turning on the power, i.e. turned on the system, then hauptwerk started and samples were loaded. Not every organist knows how to use a computer. Is it possible to do it like in a normal digital instrument?
Only halfway through the video, but hope we deal with the room mode by acoustic treatment of the walls. Being such a small square, the mode will accentuate 100-120ish hertz. This is really noticeable--even with your just speaking in the room. I'd suggest acoustic paneling of at least 5 inches--held a few inches from the wall to increase their effects.
Alas, it's up to the owner. If they're reading this, give a call to a company that manufacturers paneling and ask for a consult to deaden the sound. With an awesome sound engine like hauptwek, some tuning can be done to the output, but you will be happier with an acoustically dead space. You can also DIY panels.
It’s not complicated, just typical firmware! One label points to another label, ect., until it points to a physical label or implied physical label on the devise. 😮😅
Have you ever played through the low pressure ( like a pipe), wide footprint ( so instant dispersion for a small space) Magnepan Magneplanar speakers? They also have the advantage of low ear fatigue, super dynamic range, and because they are low pressure, when you go outside the house ( or another part of the house) you can barely hear it. I believe that Hauptwerk and Magnepan should join forces for some R&D.
I don’t have much time to listen to Beauty in Sound, but I’m considering a Hauptwerk Organ in my home theater into 32 Channels and audio processing, ceiling speakers and so forth. The house will be done in about 14 months. Now that I know you are doing this work maybe a trip to Wyoming, USA after things are ready. View of the Grand Tetons next to Yellowstone National Park. With the speaker arrangement planned antiphonal casement could be well accommodated. We can give you a ride or drive in the Tesla Model X Plaid. Good show! I do like the Tycan too.
@@beautyinsound I will, I just emailed with the engineering build company for our house. It will be about a year before completed. This would be terrific.
Fascinating insight into how complicated Hauptwerk is ( I’ll stick with my Viscount I think!) Liverpool Cathedral organ IS. The largest in the country by the way! The installation of the Central Space section and the Corona Reed confirmed that. The planned installation of the Echo division will further cement its position!
*So I can improve for next time, what do you think to the level and quantity of technical information in this video? I appreciate your feedback!* 👍
I much prefer manual stops. The organ is wonderful
Very clear video. Hauptwerk can get very technical and complicated ! However, Nancy is pronouced "nan-see" in french and not "nan-say"
Technical information is VERY helpful for those of us less versed in all things a hauptwerk.
You'd better add that Porche to your Christmas list!

Cheers for the shoutout to Liverpool Cathedral, I'll be organ scholar there from next month. Do come and visit again!
You are an amazing human being...full of Wonder and Love. Blessings to you!
Thank you Richard. I love all of your expert technical organ and audio information.
And the demo ride in the Electric Porsche was an extra special treat. Weee!
Really interesting Richard and very well put over. Trevor’s now looking up Def Tech speakers ! Thank you for this. Trevor and Jan Canewdon Uk 👏👏😊
Thank you Richard! So nice to have information like this about setting up the organ. Very helpful!
Impressive, Richard. You’re a talented and gifted young man. Hope you continue to share your expertise whenever you can.
Awesome video! A Turbo S is definitely the right car to start with if you've never experienced an electric vehicle 😂
I’ve been in a few fast cars, but I’ve never felt acceleration like this before. Astonishing!
@@richmcveigh Yup, it must be absolutely crazy! I only know the „normal“ 911’s with their ~4 second 0-60 and this already feels fast. The Taycan is actually being built here in the Porsche Leipzig facility! 😀
Enjoyed that Richard, many thanks for posting this! :-)
Thank you for the explanations . I love to listen to you and know how the organ works

But the are having battery problems with that at present.

This was great. I love learning more about the amazing Hauptwerk organs. Thank you!
It's a wonderful video !
I like very much this kind of extra-content !
Thanks so much ! I wish I had the same console !

@@revjonathan3166 just wondering, do you and your son do Hauptwerk set ups outside of Victoria? If so, may I contact you? (I'm in Adelaide)
@@barbaraives4962 yes, we are near Mt Gambier. I could help you if you like

Good evening it’s interesting to see
Love your video well made , good bye
Those big cones on the back speakers are not actually speakers/drivers, but passive radiators replacing the bass reflex tubes.

Great info but slow down please. Finding the piston screens takes a second. I went through the process but the old piston settings won’t clear 😢
Right-click and choose clear all settings

Great job on this. Quite interesting, but complicated. I can see why they called you for consultation. Glad you enjoyed the Porsche.
…so are you an air traffic controller? …or an ex-space shuttle pilot? The sound is amazing…
Love the added Porsche content.
Oh me too!
With a background in music techie stuff this is all new to me, but fascinating regardless.
