  • Ormskirk Parish Church organ and pews in 3D binaural audio. Headphones are required for the 3D effect else you will not experience the audio correctly, please use a low volume of about 20% to 30% depending on how good your hearing is.
    Have a virtual seat on one of the pews, and a virtual walkabout inside the church.
    Pieces played:
    NUN DANKET By Sigfrid Karg-Elert 4:57
    Prere A Notre-Dame By Leon Boellmann 8:55
    TRUMPET VOLUNTARY By John Stanley 15:44
    Bach BWV 533 Fugue in E-minor (not complete - 2nd part). 19:30
    Prelude in a classic style by G Young 22:20
    These SR3D Binaural microphones are perfect for live performances, or for making recordings when people can't be there in person, like live events, these can be streamed from many devices so that it can be heard anywhere in the world with an Internet connection, almost like they were there, if they use headphones, or neck speakers as they seem to work quite well too.
    No mastering of the audio was used at all, this is the raw audio from the microphones, a Zoom H1n was used for the pew microphone, a SR3D basic with a USB adapter was used on an iPhone 14 (using the default video recorder), and a sound devices Mix Pre 6 was used for both the dummy head and the SR3D XLR Pro.

    Organs, especially this one, is like playing multiple instruments at once while staying syncopated and reading the music, of both hands and feet and to use what stops. Great organists astound me with their musical mastery and discipline.

    I played this organ for a good few years in my teens, and know it very well. I'm glad to see it has a new blower, but the poor thing does have a lot of air leaks throughout the whole instrument, and the choir organ especially struggles to hold too many pipes sounding for too long...
    That being said, this is a magnificent organ - one of Britain's largest outside of a cathedral, certainly in north west England. It's well loved, and as well cared for as the church can afford. There's a LOT of organ crammed into less space than it needs, so the sound really doesn't live up to its full potential either.
    If you are ever in Ormskirk, you must drop in and say hello! I'd certainly love to go back there and play this magnificent beast again.

      Considering how old that organ is the air was probably supplied originally by men operating huge manually operated bellows. I have seen drawings of them and the required dozens of men to operate on the larger organs. I worked for a pipe organ company in my youth and foolishly quit.

    The Tubas look nice and so does the Trumpets and the Open and Closed wood. There are very few organs these days with tubular pneumatic actions and this one has it. Nice playing, good organ.

    • @organbuilder272
      @organbuilder272 Před 2 měsíci

      Tubular action was a failure. It was a brief bridge between tracker action and electro-pneumatic action. They worked but they were slow to respond to touch. Very sensitive to atmospheric pressure and were nasty to maintain.

  • @davidcraggs3770

    An interesting Video of a very good organ. A lot of wind leaks inside but hopefully that can be dealt with when funds are perhaps available and before the situation deteriorates and the instrument has instability of wind.
    The young man who played is well acquainted with the organ and while some of his choice of registration in the pieces played maybe debatable, his playing is to be applauded. He played the Bach fugue at just the right tempo, along with the Karg Elert.
    Well done!!!
    A specification of the organ would have been helpful in order that any organists who may wish to visit and play the organ, have an idea of the tonal resources when preparing or choosing their selection of pieces .
    The young organist did however demonstrate the tonal structure which was helpful.

    Dummy-head binaural recordings have been around for decades, and they work very well in locations like this one. The audio quality in an on-location recording is usually very good.
    I've never understood why it did not become more widely used.

    • @iworkout6912
      @iworkout6912 Před 2 měsíci

    • @Tmanaz480
      @Tmanaz480 Před 2 měsíci +1

      The major limitation that kept it from being more widely used is that the listener must be wearing headphones. Binaural recordings don't translate well to loudspeakers. Of course in our time headphones/earbuds are more popular than ever, so hopefully we'll have a bit of a binaural renaissance.

      Discretion is the better part of valour» and in that instance the definition of discretion is the ability to understand and interpret music authentically. The player will make a very fine musician once he masters «discretion» in his approach to registration. A CAVEAT..... I now understand that this instrument is SUFFERING so it's possible that despite it's touted huge resources that possibly the correct stops might not have been usable. When faced with failing instruments all of us use what's available - sometimes gritting our teeth as we do so.

    Dear Mark: A very nice tour and some nice playing of some of my favourite «party pieces». I do hope you'll record them again having listened carefully to the REGISTRATION (especially the Priére, and the Minuet (not annotated) which suffered a bit from too-heavy reeds as did the LH parts of the Stanley. You might also wnat to work on some of the scale and arpeggio passages where PHRASING (and a more flexible tempo in appropriate places) could make the pieces more enjoyable for the listener. Is that Trumpet stop really that screechy, or was it 4' coupled to beef it up? If the former, there's evidence for some re-voicing (IMHO). Overall, high marks for the whole and a thumbs-up for the camera work and production values. Keep playing and keep posting!

      @@bobdeverell All a matter of appropriateness. Boëllman would have been cringing. PRIÈRE calls for delicate reeds if any, and even the Minuet is intended to be LIGHT - it's a rather prissy DANCE not a war march.. As for the Stanley the entire piece rests on the CONTRAST between the Trumpet solo which, given its already high register, shouldn't have too many upper harmonics added (or supplied by an over-aggresive 8' Trumpet stop) and the accompaniment parts should SUPPORT but not dominate the solo. An organ of that size has no excuse for not having the right stops for an authentic performance of almost any standard repertoire.

      Yes, plenty of noise, I’m sure you spotted the note on the video explaining what it was unless you skipped through it. Compression artefacts sound very much different to the hiss of escaping air, but it even got me when I first got back to the workshop as I though it was some kind of noise with the equipment too, but it’s just air escaping from the old leather seals. The church does have a fund for raising monies to repair it, it is a very expensive project.

    Really cool instrument. Would love to try playing one. Caught me off guard the bit about the organ itself generating the white noise, up until that moment I was wondering what was up, but I guess that makes sense that air needs to be pumped through the tubes for the sound to propagate. I rather enjoyed the Bach piece.

      Yes there is much confusion with binaural audio as well, not just with the beats side of it, many manufacturers use the term ‘binaural’ incorrectly for stereo microphones. After a recent debate with someone I thought it would be better perhaps to call binaural microphone ’binaural capturing devices’ as then the association of microphones could then be separated, I think this term could be a far better description of what they are anyway, as that is exactly what they do 🤭
      Many thanks for taking time out to experience this audio, I hope you manage to find some time to checkout what other binaural recordings I’ve done on my channel, volume levels are important or ‘perspective control’ as another customer explained it to me which is again another correct use of terms 👂

    It seems to me that you have to stand right in front of the organ with the microphones Now you stand to the right of it that gives an asymmetrical sound image Advantage is that there is no real direction to determine what you hear in terms of pipe work or percussion That is different with an Eolian organ where you can hear direction from c and c# side of the pipework
    I must say that the result is very good I sometimes make recordings of fairground organs of German origin and for that I used the Zoom H2n and it sounds very true to nature recordings made at 96khz sampling and 24bit

    • @sr3d-microphones
      @sr3d-microphones  Před 6 měsíci

      There are snippets of audio from a zoom H1n from the pews, that also had a binaural microphone attached, I think that particular recorder is a very good value brand and has an easy menu and ease of use, the levels I set with my mics for all occasions - unless loud - are set to 5.5 on the dial.
      When I was stood in front of the pipes I didn’t notice any specific tubes being played either.
      If you’re making lots of recordings I highly recommend trying a true binaural microphone like the SR3D - www.sr3d.co.uk

    • @sr3d-microphones

      The dummy head and other mics is the reason for the video, it’s more an audio thing than a video thing. The dummy head is a microphone as are the tube mics, and are specialised in collecting sounds in exactly how we hear things, so you should have been wearing headphones to tele-transport your ears to the church and would experience what it actually sounds like in there, if you close your eyes it maybe more convincing- it’s called binaural audio and is very special sound that makes things sound like they are external to ourselves as in real life.

    • @patrickfewell3257
      @patrickfewell3257 Před 18 dny

      Organs have multiple keyboards (manuals) because different sounds are needed at the same time when playing. There are quick ways to change stops, but more flexibility is needed than that. Each manual typically has different pipes associated with it. You can couple one keyboard to another usually. If I coupled Swell to Great, the swell pipes would play when I play the Great, but not vice versa. Basically each keyboard has different pipes and different sounds. Volume level was also a concern. Remember organs were made before modern electronics. It was not always possible to change the loudness of each pipe. Some were put in a box where doors could be opened and closed to adjust loudness level.
      If you pull out all the stops, the organs can get quite loud. Also, if you remember that organs don't have sustain pedals, you can see the pedals (not the keyboard for the feet but the ones just above thoae) would be used for other things. One pedal is often the crescendo pedal that automatically adds specific sounds or pipes as you change the position of the pedal. Another possible pedal use would be to open and close the swell box that makes some pipes louder and softer.
      So basically, you have several manuals used for different pipes or sounds. They can usually be coupled together in some ways, depending on the organ. You have the keyboard for the feet which also has its own pipes, and usually can have the swell or Great manual coupled to it. Then just above the keyboard pedals for the feet, you often have 2 or 3 pedals that look sort of like a sustain pedal but actually are the crescendo pedal or volume in some organs.
      The stops you pull out are different pipe sounds. The number written is the pipe length. The buttons in between the manuals are memory presets. You can make certain combinations of pipes active, then set those to memory. Often, there are also foot memory buttons too.

      I was advised it would be an expense nightmare to stop any escaping air, although I think it simply adds some character- obviously the closer you are to the pipes the louder the air, and from the pew position it’s really not that noticeable. To be blunt, I thought I actually had an equipment error at first until I listened to the start where the organist started the blower! As I was with him and not by the pipes at the time.
      I’d love to go back and record what it sounds like in with all the pipes though!

      @@supralapsarian I have been an organist for more than 15 years and have mostly played tubular pneumatic action. Trust me, no matter how much you maintain them, they fully operate on air. While tracker organs have mechanical trackers and electromagnetics have current for conducting key actions to the pipes, tubular pneumatics have led/tin pipes/tubes at high pressure for each key and each pipe which makes a lot of gushing sound. You press a key and air flows from a chest extension into the grand puffer board from where those puffers lift and make another flow of air to all the pipes of all divisions on each mannuals and pedals and keys. The pressured air keeps on locking in and releasing with each depression of keys. This also makes it the slowest conducting system in organ building. A tubular pneumatic action organ will have twice the amount of air running than other actions where air only runs in chests and underneath the pipes. Some such organs can produce air noises audible till entry doors of the churches. When I was in India, I used to play this tubular pneumatic action organ at Christ Church, Shimla (Governor General's Church), in-between and towards the end you'll hear a cipher and lots of air noise. czcams.com/video/EM3mKpAFnm4/video.html

      , I, too, am an organist, although I have a couple of decades on you. The applicable theories of organ design, construction, operation and maintenance are not unfamiliar to me. I certainly do not expect a breathing instrument to lack the sound of breath. But the dramatic change at the 9-minute mark is jarring. I’m with SR3D-microphones-had it been my recording I would have checking for an equipment fault. There’s breath, then there’s hiss. Probably, I am simply not grasping the location where that part of the recording was made. I would be curious how it varies throughout the space.
      All of this said, my compliments stand: The space, the instrument and the performance are all worthy of high marks.
      All of this does make the case for why recording engineers must carefully choose their spot well when planning a session! (I do that too!)
