 The perfect practice organ for colleges, universities,
music school practice facilities,
as well as residence organs and home practice organs. A hand crafted
Positive Organ by Cantor Orgelbouw, The Netherlands, is a proven pipe organ solution for practice facilities or
applications where space, acoustics, or financial resources are an issue.
Aside from the ability to acquire a 20 - 40 stop practice organ at a mere fraction
of the cost of a 4 or 5 stop chamber organ or the typical "unit pipe organ", one
should also consider the long term
savings that would be realized in a hand crafted instrument that will never require tuning or
periodic maintenance.
As organists, we recognize that one of the biggest problems with the acceptance of digital organs by discerning musicians is the key action, especially when compared to a mechanical action pipe organ. We have overcome this by having specially designed, fully adjustable, custom built solid wood keyboards from Germany built for our organs that provide a true tactile sensation of pluck and release characteristics. 
Each individual organist will be the final judge of what is tonally acceptable in an organ. When considering the typical practice pipe organ of 4 to 6 stops, one should seriously consider the musical satisfaction realized by an instrument that can provide 24 or more speaking stops for a wider variety of musical registrations. In most circumstances there will be a very fine line in any compromise between absolute authenticity of sound produced by any practice pipe organ when compared to their inherent stop limitations and cost. Providing an organ with the convincing authenticity we can provide combined with a significantly larger specification has distinct advantages. An instrument such as this has the ability, by design, to be more useful in practicing a wider range of repertoire with the ability to realize appropriate registrations and performance practices. This will offer not only an appropriate musical experience, but an inherent performance advantage to the organist which is not obtainable by just "practicing notes". Cantor Organs offers the perfect solution for many applications, especially smaller
practice organs and home organs. Cantor offers custom built digital organs in a variety of styles and tonal concepts that rival traditional pipe organs. Cantor digital organs offer pipe organ realism that you may find actually sounds better than
the typical
"off the shelf" pipe organ with the exception of the most prestigious pipe organ builders. I f you are considering a practice organ or pipe organ for your facility, we would be privileged to speak with you and provide recordings and references upon request.For more information click this link or call:
