E.M. Skinner Symphonic Organ - Hauptwerk Information

The Main Console Display

     The E.M. Skinner virtual organ console is lifelike down to every detail. All stop knobs, pistons, toe studs, expression pedals, keys and pedals (even the power key) may be controlled by either mouse clicks, keyboard keys, or using an external MIDI controller or sequencer. Several controls will activate small LED display lights indicating whether or not that control is active. Also included is a user friendly 40 stage crescendo programmer which allows users to quickly and easily set up customized crescendo stages.

The Full View Display

     The Full View display page mirrors the Main Console display page with large easy to read stops, pistons and couplers. Engaging a control from this display page will automatically engage the same control on the Main Console and vice versa. Red indicators will show the state of all three expression pedals (Choir, Swell and Crescendo.) The special crescendo programmer switches are also located here for an effortless method of setting up the crescendo pedal stages.
    Hauptwerk 3 Advanced Edition allows multiple display pages to be used on more than one monitor. For those using Hauptwerk 3 Basic Edition, which only supports a single display page at one time, the Full View display provides a method to easily drag the display between two touch screen monitors. The screen is conveniently split down the middle for just this purpose. For those running Hauptwerk 3 Advanced Edition see the newly added display pages for left and right stop control below (currently only available in the new MasterWorks Series.)

The Left Jamb (MasterWorks version only)

    The MasterWorks Series E.M. Skinner features dual screen stop jambs which are optimized for touch screen use. The left jamb display contains all Pedal and Swell stops as well as pistons, couplers and expression pedal indicators. The use of dual screen displays requires that users own a license for Hauptwerk 3 Advanced Edition.

The Right Jamb (MasterWorks version only)

     The right jamb display contains all Great and Choir stops as well as pistons, couplers and the crescendo programmer panel. The use of dual screen displays requires that users own a license for Hauptwerk 3 Advanced Edition.

The Tutti Programmer

     A fully programmable Tutti piston can be modified on the Tutti display page. Any stop or coupler may either be turned on or off while the Tutti piston is engaged. The rocker switches will show a red LED light for each stop or coupler activated for use with the Tutti piston. All tutti settings are able to be stored as part of the Hauptwerk combination file system.

The Crescendo Stop Settings

     The Crescendo Stops page allows users to see which stops are activated during each of the 40 crescendo stages. Each red LED light is clickable to adjust the settings. Using the crescendo programmer switches found on display pages one and two will activate these LED lights. All crescendo stop settings are able to be stored as part of the Hauptwerk combination file system.

The Crescendo Coupler Settings

     The Crescendo Couplers page allows users to see which couplers are activated dring each of the 40 crescendo stages. Each red LED light is clickable to adjust the settings. Using the crescendo programmer switches found on display pages one and two will activate these LED lights. All crescendo coupler settings are able to be stored as part of the Hauptwerk combination file system.

The Wind Gauges

     The Wind Gauge display page will demonstrate the status of the virtual bellows. Shown here are the default settings which allow for expansion and contraction of the bellows and oscillation of the virtual wind system.
