L'orgue Automatique

This blog shows the progress day after day of a midi organ building. Midi organ is a barrel organ without cardboard or paper roll, just driven by a computer. It can be virtually as small as a busker and as big as a church organ. When you begin the construction you are are not sure of what size it will be!

And it works!

Good news! We heard today a few notes of music. It's not really perfect. Many things are to be changed. I have to add an other bellow, I have to change the reservoir and the wind chest. All the solenoïds must be re-installed (and so I'll be able to add diodes...). But the pipes (the few which are working properly) seem have got a beautiful sound so I can keep this...The electronic card is now fixed and the Midi files Reader does its job very well. I have to test with the battery fully charged, some notes do not want to play under the pressure. It will be better with vitamins. And if somebody can tell me how I can put a MP 3 somewhere for donwloading, don't hesitate! I'll record a few tunes. Right now, I must wait for the battery ......and I have many tunes to arrange to continue! Posted by Picasa
