GrandOrgue is a software sampler for pipe organs, named after the French name for the primary part of an organ, the " main work ".
The software is controlled via MIDI . The surface, which is modeled on a gaming table, enables the registers on the screen to be operated with the mouse or via one or more touch screens ; control via MIDI command is also possible. The software works with recordings ( samples ) of real organ pipes, which must be integrated as so-called ODF files (organ definition files). The download of the program and the ODF files is free. Sample sets for GrandOrgue can be downloaded free of charge from the Internet. As an additional variant, sample sets of various harpsichords , electronic organs or carillons are also offered.
A model for programming GrandOrgue was the program main work .
functionality
GrandOrgue imitates the properties of a real pipe organ. This concerns not only the possibility of selecting certain moods , but also the advantage of being able to individually adjust the parameters of the individual “pipes” (level, amplification, mood in cents ), i.e. being able to intone or tune them. Additional functions that the original organ did not have at all can be simulated using additional playing aids (generals, divisionals, coupling, sills, etc.). So z. B. a shelf "Tongues on / off" with the help of the "Scope / Scoped" function
or several differently designed crescendo pedals can be easily implemented.
The setup and the connection to a MIDI-compatible organ console are problem-free. The assignment of each individual manual as well as all game aid functions can be "learned" immediately by the software recognizing and saving the action, i.e. the MIDI channel and the control command. In the basic configuration, GrandOrgue contains a two-manual organ with 20 registers as a demo.
Convolution reverb is integrated. The small WAV files required for this can be downloaded free of charge from several providers.
Potential-free buttons can be used as control elements in any number and arrangement via appropriate interfaces (e.g. Contact-to-MIDI). Audio output via ASIO is possible.
Remarks
The 32-bit version of GrandOrgue is limited to 3 GB of sample data, depending on the operating system, sample sets larger than 1.5 to 2 GB block some features.
Moods
The software offers a large number of preset moods. With the keyboard on the software side, the interrelationships and registrations can be tried out and listened to on every computer thanks to the "locking keys".
