Kingsfold - I Heard The Voice Of Jesus Say - Mini tour of the stops of the new CANTORUM DUO PLUS

- Here we go with the second video recorded with my new Viscount Cantorum Duo PLUS, equipped with the new Physis Plus technology. I think there is still some voicing refinement to be done, but overall, I already like what I hear. The new editor allows many more voicing possibilities, and I still need to get acquainted with all the new functions.
The piece I have chosen to give a brief tour of the sounds of the organ is the hymn tune Kingsfold, "I heard the voice of Jesus say", which I particularly like.
Please note that the instrument has been completely revoiced. Moreover, I added some octave couplers, which are not there out of the box, and a custom powerful reverb.
I hope you will enjoy the music and the sound of this little but assertive instrument.
Ciao
Paolo

Well, you will not be surprised to know that I am impressed. The voicing and other magic you add makes for a most convincing and really satisfying pipe organ substitute sound here. The truth is I would not know this is a digital instrument, generating synthetic pipe sound (and since you have no attached pedal board, it demonstrates how effective the manual/pedal coupler is for those who are not au fait with this particular organist skill). If only it sounded like this straight out-of-the-box. Viscount is missing an opportunity to blow the competition out of the water. As Carly Simon sang in the Bond film, 'The Spy Who Loved Me' . . . nobody does it better, Paolo. You are the 007 of the digital organ world - the secret agent with all the answers!
'Kingsfold' has never sounded better. "I heard the voice of Paolo say, this is what Physis plus can do . . . '
Ahah! Thanks. Graham! We both are secret agents of the digital organ MI6! Yes, Viscount could blow the competition and leave everybody miles behind. They could.
Hi Paolo👋😃, this is the best version of the Cantorum I've ever heard! You've done a great job getting to grips with the new editor! Oktav Couplers... that's awesome!!!! By the way, I wish "kingsfold" was sung here too - it's so uplifting.
Thanks, Dietmar! 😃While I kind of know how to play a hymn, I should definitely refrain from singing; otherwise, this would become a horror CZcams channel! 🤣
@@digitalpipes that's a funny answer , I've thought the reference to Germany though, singing here with us😅
@@organgoesheavy Oh! That would be very nice! 😃
THANK YOU VERY MUCH
You're welcome!
Wow! What a clean sound. Lovely.
Thanks very much!
Gee! It might be short but what a nice hymn with nice organ demonstration! I LUV IT😏👍😎👍
Thanks so much! 😃
Wonderful 🤗👏👏👏👏
Thanks, Peter! 🙂
You're so welcome
Yes sir i subscribed.😊
Fantastic! Can you please make more videos about the Cantorum Duo Plus? Thank you very much❤
Years ago I had the Cantorum VI. If it ever would have sounded like this, I probably still had it ;) Great recording, Paolo!
Thanks, Ralph! Well, ehm, it does not sound like this even now! 🤣
Grazie della condivisione. Suono fantastico ed anche l'esecuzione. Rispetto al precedente modello è migliorato tantissimo. Spero in altri video. ❤
Grazie molte per l'apprezzamento! Tempo libero permettendo, prometto di caricare qualche altro video con questo strumentino!
Beautiful! I would love for you to do a video showing a few of the features like how you created the octave couplers. This gives me hope that I may be able to afford a Viscount instrument yet. Thanks!
Thanks very much! Creating the octave couplers with MIDI is very easy. I used this system: czcams.com/video/KMOr4-VeAO0/video.htmlsi=PaZOhWCT6tGg0u1O
Great Demo of the Viscount Cantorum Duo Plus! 😃 Your revoicing must have unlocked lots of potential of the small and compact, yet mightly console's Physis Plus!
And btw, congrats on reaching 1K subscribers! 🎉
Thank you kindly! The new Cantorum is truly a small powerhouse! 😃
Can you make a video showing how to change the stops to such a beautiful tone? It sounds amazing!
Sounds amazing. I would love it if you would consider recording without the couplers and the reverb from the chain. I don’t know about others, but I would really like to know what your voicing sounds like just coming from the Viscount alone. Also, have you ever considered making a guide or any kind of teaching resource on how one should go about voicing their instrument?
I know Paolo will answer the requests you make . . . but I would guess that, even with his expert voicing skills, the sound of this Physis Plus instrument out-of-the-box and with its in-built speakers will be less than satisfactory (being polite!), and not a sound Paolo would want to share on his channel - especially as you can hear what Physis Plus sounds like out-of-the-box on CZcams videos that Viscount has already uploaded with its inbuilt reverb and factory voicing.
The truth is . . . Paolo is making us aware of the real potential of this advanced technology, when brought to life with the 'magic' he alone adds. Viscount is quite happy to sell you something markedly inferior; Paolo is only interested in the best possible outcome . . . and it comes at a price!
Thank you for your comment. I figured this would be the case. I actually quite like the sound of the Viscount Opera recordings, but not so much the others. They are aware of this, by the way, and I anticipate that they might update some of this content. On a side note, I play in an acoustically dry church, and most of the churches in the area are similar, unfortunately. We use a Viscount, and it has already been rather impressive so far. I have been running a Hauptwerk setup for years, and I still appreciate the sound that a Viscount can make. However, I have not heard anything quite like the content on this channel! @@grahamtwist
I happily use Hauptwerk, and although I like the access it gives me to some of the great organs in the world, I recognise that Physis plus technology is capable of producing an even better result as it is not just recorded, individual pipe sounds brought together artificially, but generated pipe sounds that can be nuanced to copy real pipe speech to a remarkably good approximation. Unfortunately, the weakness in the Viscount product tends to be the factory voicing, the low quality built-in reverb and the inferior speakers. That's a shame when you see what this technology can sound like when Paolo addresses those weaknesses! But I'm glad you are happy with the instrument you play. We all want our Viscount organs to sound like Paolo's instruments!
Because I want a dry realistic and extremely clear organ sound, I have purchased a 3 manual Physis Plus viscount which will hopefully arrive in a month or two. I hope the voicing goes well! @@grahamtwist
@@FlexLessons Good luck! I have my fingers crossed for you!
Salutări din Focșani. Sună foarte bine noua orga!
Mulțumesc foarte mult, Sebi! Orga pe care am lasat-o la Focsani suna mai bine! 😃
Ați văzut concertul de Crăciun?
@@chelarusebastian4965 Sigur ca da! Foarte frumos! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I FELT LIKE IN A FAIRY TALE
Thanks, Aliona! 🙂
How did you make a custom II-4’?? I just bought one of these and it would be amazing help!
Hola. Felicidades por tu interpretación, aprovecho a preguntar, estos sonidos son propios del modelo cantorum o de algún software de órgano virtual?
Thanks, the sound is of the new Cantorum Duo Plus.
You're teasing me to have a crisis between buying this and the Content Compact 224...
Very beautiful voicing...
Can ths console support AGO pedalboards?
I am thinking about buying the Dou plus. What I do not get: How do you always enhance the sounds like you are doing? My little researches lead nowhere. Is that a possibility within the Physys Pluy technology? Do you use an external software and/or is something plugged in while you are playing or does the sound come from the Duo alone after enhancing it? I would be greatful if you could guide me into the right direction.
External reverb and custom voicing are basics.
Dear Paolo, I saw that you had Octave Couplers installed. Can the Cantorum cope with this or was some extra power / DSP necessary?
Surprisingly, it can cope both with the II-16-I and the II-4-I that I added, also when used together.
@@digitalpipes Thank you so much for your answer. That's really impressive. Maybe already equipped for a Trio Plus 🤔
Sounds very impressive. I’m curious how it sounds in your room. And how it feels to play. You can get most current VPO’s to sound pretty good for the listener. But the playing experience is generally not great ( ie. Hauptwerk etc )
Thanks. I always use headphones because, so far, it is the most faithful means available to reproduce the sound precisely without the interference of the room where the organ sits (double ambience problem). Of course, it is also possible to listen through speakers, but the result is not so immersive unless one uses a calibrated surround system. I also have Hauptwerk and Sweelinq but I used them only for voicing research purposes. I agree with you that the playing experience (while the sound is attractive) is somehow off; I get tired of the sound very fast. I experience the same with every sampled instrument, and I guess it is because of the repetitiveness of the samples being played over and over again. On the other hand, I do have this problem with my Physis instruments because the sound is more alive and coherent, so it approximates the behaviour of a real pipe organ better than other technologies. These are just my two cents... 🙂
@@digitalpipes thank you for taking the time to reply. I used to do some voicing for one of the manufactures when i was a bit younger and although the technology has improved so much, i still find the playing experience uninspiring. I agree that there is the obvious limitation with sample based instruments. And this is more evident for organs as opposed to other orchestral instruments. Sometimes i find hauptwerk a little fun. But for practise it’s always just one 4ft flute no mater what the instrument. !
Would you share all your settings? :)
A question sir. When the instrument is connected to a extrenal soundcard for DAW recording, are the internal spekaers keeping working?
Only if you use the external output lines of the organ. If you use the headphone jack to connect the audio interface, the internal speakers will be muted.
Thanks for answering. This is what I mean. If I connect a pair of audio cables from the output of the instrument to a mixer or soundcard, the only way to turn off the speakers is to plug in a headphone plug?
@CercleBruggeFan no, you simply turn off the internal volume 😉
@@digitalpipes Ok, ok. Mine arrives next monday. I'm reading the manual at page EN-25 and it is a little bit confusing for me. So. Which is the best combination to switch between headphones and speakers without constantly plug in and plug out the headphone jack rear the instrument? (I have near a mixer connected to an audio interface and computer.) Thanks in advance for your help.
Keep the headphone connected to the audio interface connected to the line outputs of the cantorum. When you want to listen with the headphones you just wear them, and turn down the internal volume with the potentiometer, when you want to play with the speakers you just turn up the volume.
Che strumento! Paolo hai modificato il suono?
Sì, Simone! Tutto modificato come al solito! 😄
Qual è la differenza fra physis e physis plus? Realmente..!
Physis Plus è la versione ad alta definizione di Physis. Un po' come la differenza tra un MP3 e un file Wave 😉
The 16’ you say is put in the pedalboard, is false, there is not put you any 16’
I guess you don’t know how Viscount Physis works and what are the customisation possibilities. Read the user manual.
É una campionatura hauptwerk, non il suono reale del cantorum
Sbagliato. Non é il suono di default del cantorum, é il suono del cantorum reintonato e processato in tempo reale nel mio sistema dedicato. Non c’è nessun Hauptwerk qui.
