The Swell wind chest and soundboard built up in the workshop ready to be played for the first time

I visited the workshop on 17th December to look at and hear the Swell division before it is dismantled and packed for installation in church.  After a bit of tuning it sounds really promising – even though the various sounds have not yet been blended together properly and the mixture ‘screams’ a bit because it has not yet been adjusted to operate on 3.2″ of wind pressure instead of its original 2.5″.  This section and all of its pipes will be fitted into the swellbox when that is remade.
