("3" = 2-2/3; "T" = 1-3/5; "t" = second
touch; "z" = pizzicato touch)
(I have left out the non-tuned percussions.)
This is the stop analysis as taken from the relay. (The current owner
checked several items for me and the previous owner was kind enough to
send
detailed drawings that he had made showing all of the stop
switches.) The
mystery of the second 32' Diaphone remains as such, some folks claiming
they've see the pipes, the console having a stoptab for it, but the
relay
shows no switch for it. Special
effects such as the "Lion's Roar" and the
"Ore Dump" are not listed here, the later apparently being a
length of mine
railroad track with a genuine ore car containing a load of stone in a
wire
mesh bag arranged such that the load could be "dumped" upon
command!
Known to still exist are the console, relay, Trumpet, Gambas, 16' octave
of
Oboe Horn, Kinura, Doppel Flute, Quintadenas, Dolce Diapason, and Unda
Maris. The 7-ranks of Vdo and
Vcel and their chest survived at least for a
while after the organ was demolished.
A listing of the stoptabs is available from the ATOS archives, but it
does
not indicate the derivations of many of the stops.
