very cool! a lovely performance of the great organ warhorse. such a great instrument you guys have there.
Thank you very much!
My opinion: Organteq is obviously a very good organ emulator. But when you use it with a good/powerful sound system installed in a concert hall with interesting/complex acoustics (for instance in an old church), it becomes absolutely impressive!

The sound system of the church is a stereo (2-channel) system consisting of
(1) The front subsystem: A pair of active Edifier S3000 Pro speakers,
(2) The rear subsystem:
- A Behringer 1004 bundle consisting of 4 satellites (2 satellites per channel) and an active subwoofer which powers the whole system
+
- An active Avcom 10'' subwoofer.
All 6 rear speakers (4 satellites and 2 subwoofers) are mounted on the roof of the small entrance hall, at about 2,5 m height.
The distance between the front and the rear system is about 12m.
The right (left) front Edifier speaker is synchronised with the two Behringer right (respectively left) rear satellites.
The signal is split between the front and the rear subsystems using a simple Y jack cable. The rear system is connected to one of the branches of this cable using 2 Muxlab baluns (which convert unbalanced to balanced signal and vice-versa) and a 20m long ethernet cable (which goes to the back along a wall in a very thin 2,5 m heigh cable duct). Therefore there is no lost (in quality or strength) of the signal on the way to the back subsystem.
Speaker specifications:
Edifier system:
RMS power : high 8W+8W, middle and bass 120W+120W, total RMS: 256W.
Frequency response: 38Hz - 40 kHz.
Behringer :
RMS power: 200W.
Maximal peak power : 600W.
Subwoofer frequency response : 30Hz-145Hz.
Satellites frequency response: 110 Hz - 20 kHz.
Avcom subwoofer:
RMS power: 300W
Frequency response: 20 Hz - 200 Hz
(surprising for a subwoofer which costs 120€).
The price of the whole system (including all accessories) was under 2000€.
