Hi Steve-

Is this an organ you have built? I think your proposal has much
merit. Just a few questions/comments.

Of the 2 flutes- is either one open pipes? Perhaps the Zauberflute?
Which would give it a character like a harmonic flute. If it is then
is the Nachthorn stopped for all or any of it? That would give it a
quint like character.

I like the appearance of 16' on both manuals but I'm wondering if
they are either too heavy for manuals or too light for Pedal.

Where does the low octave of the Geigen Principal 8' duplex?

What is the mixture composition? A separate 12th would be nice.

I think such a unit organ would make quite a respectable sound.

Bruce
