Wyvern Minuet 224

The Minuet 224 has a compact console similar to the Sonata and so is ideal for home practice especially if space is limited.

Compact console ideal for the home or the smaller church

Despite its modest size this organ has two full compass 61 note keyboards and a 30 note, radiating and concave pedal board. Equipped with divisional pistons, an auto bass for non organists and a locking solid oak roll top this organ is ideal for smaller churches.

CHARACTER

The audio system is also impressive; even in standard internal configuration the organ has ten speakers over six audio channels that enable the ranks to be divided. A “split-semitone” system is also used to give movement to the sound that help produce the character of a pipe organ. For church use the organ can be configured with external speakers.

CRAFTSMANSHIP

The rugged console has an abundance of solid oak including the locking oak roll top that gives the organ an air of quality. The expression pedal is a robust construction with wooden shoe.

“I must take this opportunity to say how impressed I am with the organ. It really is an organist’s organ, a delight to play and a pleasure to listen to.”

Trevor Webb, Kent

OPTIONS AND PERSONALISATION

This organ has a carefully chosen specification of 24 speaking stops the emphasis being on the quality of tone rather than an extensive stop list. In addition to the British specification there are three other alternative specifications: French; German and Dutch. This new version of the Minuet now sports individual departmental pistons as standard. Generals and toe pistons can also be added at additional cost.
