The organ now has four manuals up and running. It also has a stop tab rail (also working) for couplers and the like. This is taking up more space than it needs to but I've deliberately left a large gap for manual 5 if and when I decide to put it in.
Since taking this photo earlier this week, I've done a bit of decorative work on the manuals although it's quite discreet. Below each piston rail, I've installed a thin strip of wood which I've attached the felt strip to that goes along the back of the keys. It just emphasises the design a little. The sampleset is just the St Anne's, Moseley one as I was playing with setting up the tabs at the time.
This picture I posted onto Facebook a few days ago. Tons of comments and lots of 'ooh' and 'ah' and 'MY GOD, WHAT THE HELL'S THAT?" in there but all of them were extremely enthusiastic. I hope you are too.
