| | Organ (music) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | In the '60s and '70s, a type of simple, portable electronic organ called the combo organ was popular, especially with pop and rock bands, and was a signature sound in the pop music of the period, such as The Doors and Iron Butterfly. | | | Because the organ has both manuals and pedals, most organ music is notated on three staves. | | | An organ, with its sustaining tones, is ideally suited to accompany human voices, whether a congregation, a choir, or a soloist, and this is one of its key purposes. |

| | Choosing an Electronic Organ |
| | Nobody likes a good pipe organ better than I do: it is the instrument par excellence for interpreting the organ repertory and for providing the musical backdrop to Christendom. | | | Within this range none admit to the slightest shortcoming; they may claim to be indistinguishable from a pipe organ both from the player's and the listener's viewpoint, and together with other alleged virtues such as freedom from regular maintenance and virtually unlimited life one wonders why a new pipe organ is ever sold now. | | | Adding a Gedackt to a Salicional, for example, would produce a composite ‘sound’ in which both components would have lost their identity. |

| | Electronic Church Organ Maintenance |
| | After seeing the inside of an electronic organ, many people have exclaimed something like " how can all those little parts make musical sounds?!" Some unethical salespersons have spread a popular myth about their analog organs - "it never needs tuning!" - well, only every 5 years or so. | | | The organist wonders where the extra notes are coming from, while the pedal bounces two or three times as they have gone on with their music. | | | Capture board from a ten-year-old Allen organ with original batteries showing leakage and corrosion. |
