Pedal-powered reed organs (often referred to as pump organs) were once the most popular instruments in the USA. Manufactured by the Estey Organ Company from 1860 onwards, they were often housed in ornate and elaborate pieces of furniture.
The organ we have recorded appears to be a high-top Grand Salon Organ, dating from around the turn of the 19th century. It is played, as you might expect, by pumping the two foot pedals alternately, to force air through the reed mechanism. It requires some technique, and no small amount of effort to keep a strong, even tone from the instrument.
We recorded the Estey Organ by removing the back panel, which gave a more direct sound, and minimised the considerable pedal noise. We have included separate pedal noise which can be blended in (or not) for realism.

踏板驱动的簧片风琴(通常称为泵风琴)曾经是美国最受欢迎的乐器。它们由Estey Organ Company从1860年开始制造，通常被放置在华丽且精致的家具中。
我们所记录的风琴似乎是一种高顶的Grand Salon风琴，可追溯到19世纪初。如您所料，通过交替踩两个脚踏板来演奏它，以迫使空气通过簧片机构。它需要一些技巧，并且需要花费很少的精力才能使乐器保持强劲，均匀的音调。
我们通过拆下后面板来录制Estey风琴，声音更直接，并最大程度地减小了踏板的噪音。我们提供了单独的踏板噪音，可以将其混合(或不混合)以实现真实感。
