HCH # 4426 & 4427
For some time we have been exploring a truly excellent digital continuo instrument which would produce the vocal color and contain the beautiful casework for which the pipe continuo organs are known, but available at a more modest price.
Designed in collaboration with Organaria Isontina of Italy, this is a four stop transposing continuo organ with historical temperaments, a wooden keyboard plated with boxwood and ebony, and a solid wood case. Stops are a digital sampling of individual pipes.
Unique Features
• Digital sound sampling of every pipe
• Properly weighted wooden keyboard with adjustable touch
• Retracting keyboard for moving or storage
• Cabinet work of solid yellow pine
• Never needs tuning
• Variable pitch, temperament and volume of each stop
• Midi compatible ( Hauptwerk/ Cecilia/ Grand Orgue can be used with this system )
Since 1985, HCH has been a major builder and provider here in the USA and Canada of pipe continuo organs of the highest standards. As a four stop organ, "Tina" looks, sounds and responds to the performer much like our pipe instruments.
