    Dear VSL people,

    I got notification from Ilio that the new Concert Organ was shipping to me. I want to thank you in advance for what I expect to be yet another high quality addition to your library, and a welcome addition to my workflow.

    Thanks for keeping your word to those of us who purchased the whole Symphonic Cube.

    Keep up the good work. I look forward to the release of the newest libraries.

    Best regards,

    Jack


    Can someone clarify what the eligibility requirements are for this organ?
    If it not out yet then why did you guys get it?


    Thanks,

    You have to have taken a thirty year mortgage with Vienna Symphonic Orchestra Financial Services, be on a less than preferential interest rate and also promise your first-born as a weekend Silent Stage cleaner.

    Actually it was for all those who bought the Symphonic Cube before a particular date. [:D]

    I think that I've been very restrained on this forum. As someone who's idea of a good film is the Carry On series, I can't believe that I haven't even made a crack at people who use a program with the initials DP. [[:|]]

    lol.
    Carry on Camping. Carry on Nurse. Carry on Taxi, or whatever it was called.
    Fond memories.
    And Sid James, with his dodgy beauty contest, and trying not to get caughtt at it.

    And then there was an Eric Sykes movie called 'The Plank.'

    For me though, and i know the series wasn't movie based, Dad's Army still ranks up there at the top.
    When humour was charming.

    And i'm surprised, Daryl, at your reticence with DP. So much material to work with!

    Regards from a very snowy Moscow, where snow queens and princesses are frolicking freely and enthusiastically, teetering across a thin veneer of ice on precariously fragile high heels, designed to make any man feel younger,when admiring their antics!

    Installed mine this morning. I feel that I need a much bigger chair, and several stacked keyboards to do this thing justice.

    It's a stunning sound. Keyboard response is lovely. Must do something else today other than hash out Bach and Vidor...

    wow [[:|]] thanks again!

    On a sidenote - yesterday evening we had the chance to "officially" launch the Vienna Konzerthaus Organ in the proper environment: The Vienna Konzerthaus. The smile on the face of the Konzerthaus' technical director, Heinz Repper, was even broader than mine when he heard the virtual representation of "his" organ for the first time. [:)]

    Congratulations to you and all the team - wish I had been there, I have very fond memories of performing there, and have been looking forward to playing the organ in the comfort of my own studio! [:P]

    Thanks for the applause - the whole team deserves it.

    As a partner of the "Wien Modern"-festival which takes place in Vienna right now (as every autumn), the VSL was invited to do a workshop / lounge / panel discussion in the small theater inside (actually below) the Konzerthaus. This is a pretty dry room for about 80 visitors, where we put in two PMC-studio monitors (which were lent to us by the Austrian distributor Avitech ... a big thanks to them, BTW).

    DG and Comrade Hermitage...

    I am glad that some Englishmen like the Carry On series. After what Paul R said, I thought I was being an Ugly American expressing a fondness for that extremely Silly (note the capital S) movie series.

    BTW, Paul R is offline now, so you can start the insults.

    Anyway, either Carry On Spying or Carry On Screaming are my favorites, though I have not yet seen all of the others. Mel Brooks got a LOT of ideas from that series.



    Carry On Sampling...

    I've only downloaded the concert organ today and just had to say to Dietz how FANTASTIC it sounds! This must be without doubt the best and only sampled organ, anywhere, anytime, that sounds like the real thing. Thanks Dietz! [[;)]]

    [:)] ... Great to hear that you like it! Seems as the almost ridiculous amount of work we put into this pays off.

    Enjoy!
