Updated by Scot Huntington, who has heard or played the organ. In addition Scot Huntington gave this as a source of information: Examination of organ March 21, 2019.
First ca. 1968 enlargement used existing chime and coupler stop controls repurposed to control new stops. The original stop tablet coupler rail was replaced, now with added tablets to control the intra-manual functions previously accessed by stop knobs. Two pedal stops are now controlled by new toe studs with indicator lamps in the Swell keycheek. Wind and Signal lamps once on the nameboard have been moved to the other Swell keycheek. The Great and Swell keyslips have been replaced with new units having a substantially expanded piston complement. The new 8-level Peterson solid-state control system has a roto-selector in the nameboard where the original signal lamps once were.
This describes a rebuild of an existing organ.
Identified by Scot Huntington, who has heard or played the organ.
This was an enlargement of the Aeolian-Skinner with tonal additions and chest work. The chancel chamber is now overcrowded. At some point post-2000, Potter-Rathbun installed a new solid-state control system with an expanded manual piston complement in the manual keyslips. The facade covering the chancel chamber is rudimentary and gives the impression of being home-made.
