Recorded Using the Paramount Organ Works (POW) 3/32 and Hauptwerk 4.00

I have been gradually attempting to balance, voice, and scale the POW 3/32 for Ruby's audio complement and acoustic setting. There remains a lot of work to do,  however, music is being made! Naturally, it would all sound a LOT better if there were at least 24 bits samples for the tremmed ranks, strings, and colour reeds, but..........................that is another story!

This arrangement of Little Girl Blue was recorded by Iain McGlinchey at his home in Scotland. Iain then made his MIDI track for this gorgeous arrangement of Little Girl Blue publicly available (without second touch). He also published a direct-to-disk recording of this performance - the so-called 'virtual, virtual' recording (i.e. no acoustic output recorded). I changed my preferred ambience system settings in an attempt to come closer to that which Iain chose for his 'virtual, virtual' presentation. Here it is as recorded acoustically on 'Ruby' in my crypt.

Even with my preference for a more studio type setting, it comes quite close.
