Gottfried Silbermann, St. Marienkirche User Reviews



 

- The Marien sound is perfect. Even heard with earphones. Your Silbermann compilation is a real treasure. Bach, Brahms, Pachelbel, Buxtehude, Reger and Karg-Elert all reveal inner beauty when played with the Marien's intimate sounds. Thanks for providing this musical advance.

- I am stunned with its beauty. I have to stop now or I'll get too excited and never sleep. Congratulations of the highest order. ...it's amazing how easy it is to balance these sounds. The Principal shows amazing versatility as a solo and as accompaniment in your virtual two manual layout.

- The organ sounds superb, and having given it a quick run-through I agree even more with your not digitally re-tuning it. The instrument is positively bursting with a lovely warm & sunny character, mellowed by great age, and the natural de-tuning and "noises off" add considerably to the realism. I *know* I'm playing a real, precious antique with this one! Many thanks for another excellent addition.

- I am a very happy man today, your samples arrived and in good condition. I might add the presentation (case and cd label) was very impressive as well. The whole package is a true treasure, one can almost feel theirself present at the time this great little organ was created. Thanks for getting me started on a whole new hobby, a dream come true.

- I received the Silbermann samples. They sound great, even using mono. The Principal is so nice, my reduced organ just has:

Ped - 16 Sub

Man I - Princ 8

Man II - Ged 8, Fl 4, Nas

...but even that small instrument is great to play through hymns and play some Bach. This library is fantastic. The attention to detail is evident. The realism is amazing. Considering the instrument that was sampled, the top-flight quality of the recording, and the care in preparation of loops and ambient sounds, this library is a bargain.
