EXs205 Lakeside Pipe Organ - Kronos

EXs205 "The Lakeside Pipe Organ - Kronos" is a vintage steel and wooden pipe organ recorded with master organist Don Sears at the Lakeside Temple of Practical Christianity in 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.

This carefully curated and optimized edition for Kronos showcases 6 essential stop settings on the organ, which can be compared to PP, P, MP, MF, FF dynamics and a bass pedal stop. All settings were recorded from 2 wide stereo microphone positions (close and far) for maximum user flexibility. The full range of the pipes covers 61 keys on the console, starting at C2. We've stretched the lowest note down to C-2, to allow extremely deep notes lower than the physical pipes could allow. This library also features an exclusive selection of all-new custom sound-designed FX presets to give you even more creative choices!

This 1.6 GB library includes 3,166 samples, with 12 Pipe Organ presets, 3 Organ Chime presets, 2 Cus-tom Wave Sequences and 65 Custom Designed FX Presets.
