• Powerful mixing and ensembles

Stops from different organs can be mixed freely allowing you to build your organ sound the way you want. Ensemble files provide an easy way to load preset mixtures and combinations of stops that are ready to use.

• New convolution sampled reverb

Place your pipe organ in a cathedral, a small chapel, a variety of concert halls, or other acoustic spaces. Convolution Sampled Reverb takes sampled pipe organ instruments to new heights of realism.

• Release decay technology

Special phase-aligned release triggers supply the characteristic pressure drop of the actual end of each organ note. The release samples retain all of the sound of the pressure drop while removing the room decay. This provides the flexibility to apply any decay characteristic or reverb and is wonderfully paired with the new convolution sampled reverb.
