ALTERNATIVE SPECIFICATIONS
It also includes three other alternative specifications: a sparkling Baroque organ; a Romantic French organ and a classical Dutch Classical organ each with separate sample sets.
Emphasis is on tonal quality with each rank, including the individual mixture ranks, being generated separately. The audio system is also impressive; even in standard internal configuration the organ has 14 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 – just one of many inbuilt features that help produce the character of a pipe organ!
CRAFTSMANSHIP
The Sonata, with it’s additional upper work is particularly suitable for the accompaniment of congregational singing. It is well equipped with the usual couplers and a set of general pistons in addition to the individual departmental pistons.
This is a high quality organ with a rugged oak console that will gives years of durable use especially relevant for church or school use. It will equally look good in the home, that oak slat roll top and detailed cabinet work give an air of refined quality. Even the expression pedal has an oak shoe face to complete the traditional feel of this fine instrument

“When I had my first chance to play the Wyvern Sonata last weekend I was absolutely amazed! The Sonata is just so beautiful to play (and tremendously realistic.) It feels very like playing a well made Continental mechanical-action instrument. Everyone who has seen it cannot praise it enough!”
Mr B Borthwick, Middle Herrington
