FFirst United Methodist Church originally contracted with our firm to rebuild the existing 3-manual console for their 45-rank Austin pipe organ. After lengthy discussions and considerations the contract was modified to provide an all-new 3-manual drawknob console with provisions for other improvements.
The new console was constructed in walnut with burled walnut interior to match current woodwork in the sanctuary. Tracker touch keys with bone naturals and ebony sharps were provided in the new console. Turned ebony drawknobs and maple engravings finish out a comfortable and elegant look. Our consoles are built in accordance with AGO standards for function and comfort.
The console project incorporated new solid-state relays and capture systems by Solid State Organ Systems of England. The console is installed on a lift and can be moved out for concerts and other music functions.
Peter Infanger is the Music Director of First United Methodist Church and provided input to the layout and needs for the new console.
