Low cost DIY virtual pipe organ using Hauptwerk

My low budget DIY virtual pipe organ using Hauptwerk Put together over about 8 years with parts from thrift stores, including: 30 year old Casio CPS101 keyboards, $15 each from thrift stores (Deseret Industries in Utah); pedal board and bench, $40 from DI, Costco adjustable table, $40; Midiman 4x4 $35 from Ebay; MIDI cables, $14 online from China; Refurb. HP laptop computer, $100; touch screen monitor (don't know cost--gift from children, convenient not essential); Pioneer and Sony speakers, $25 from DI; Pyle amp, $38; StarTech sound card, $12; Sennheiser HD518 headphones, $45, Ebay; scrap wood and floral wire (works best), $5 for pedalboard; Hauptwerk basic edition, $250; donations to Piotr Grabowski, $350; Sonos Paradisi San Carlo Italian organ--like those I played in Italy, $50. I played many organs in Italy, some were very old, one manual with few pedals, like San Carlo, others were new, like Mascioni's Azzio and Giubiasco. The antique organ in the pix was actually about a two miles from where we lived, not a half block--I was thinking of another old church. If you attend BYU's organ workshop in August, as I have, you could play the Tabernacle Organ in Salt Lake City. In Italy we visited several organ factories and I met Andrea Mascioni in Azzio, whose family's company has built many wonderful organs. I asked him to have Piotr Grabowski (who I only knew from website) come from Poland to sample Mascioni organs. Piotr sampled Azzio and Giubiasco, and others on his way back home. We went to watch him sample the Azzio organ. It took him from about 8 pm until about 9 am to sample that small organ. He did it by himself with an Apple computer and very high quality microphones, which I helped him set up. I think that Piotr does a wonderful job, as a "labor of love," sampling organs and making high quality sample sets available without charge. If you download any of his organs, please make a donation to cover his expenses. Thank you for watching this video and for your comments.
