A
new organ is an exciting and significant stage in
the musical evolution for a congregation and represents a
considerable investment. This literature will provide a
detailed explanation of the Phoenix Organ to those who have
taken on the responsibility of recommending the purchase of
a new organ.
There
are three distinctive features separating Phoenix
Organs from other organ manufacturers. It is important for
organ committees and organists to understand these
differences.
1. Phoenix pipe organ samples are by far the finest,
most artistic available anywhere.
2. Every Phoenix, large or small, is hand-crafted and custom
built as with a pipe organ.
3. We use the same high quality electronics and pipe samples
in every organ, large or small.
The
Art of Pipe Sampling.
The building of a fine non-winded organ
requires the same quality necessary to build a fine pipe
organ— artistic ability. That ability does not come
without years of accumulated knowledge and experience with
pipe organs. It also takes the God-given talent of a very
good ear. Donald W. Anderson, Phoenix North American Tonal
Director, has spent his life dedicated to organs, both pipe
and electronic. His talent of being able to produce
incredible pipe samples from the note-by-note recordings of
pipe organs has been heralded on both sides of the Atlantic.
The
vehicle by which those fine pipe samples are heard
was the brain child of Phoenix developer and director, David
Bostock, in England. While other companies only scratch the
surface with the available technology, the Phoenix system
takes pipe-less organ sound to a new dimension and is the
most flexible on the market today. What is most important is
that you hear one of our Phoenix Organs! We are
sure that you will not be disappointed.

"We
believe that a pipe organ should be a church's first choice,
but if that is not possible, we also believe that Phoenix
Organs are the best substitute for the real thing. It may be
argued that a good digital organ is better than a poor pipe
organ."

Old-world
craftsmanship and the highest standards of excellence
characterize the design and construction of Phoenix
consoles, using traditional pipe organ components.
Everything about a Phoenix Organ makes it authentic to its
pipe organ counterpart.
The
Phoenix system was designed from the "ground up",
without any technical pre-conceptions, and is not based
on or related to ANY existing system! Phoenix is totally
unique and autonomous. It is a very flexible organ
system. Everything is custom built and adjustable,
even after the organ has been completed, and the number of
parameters controlling each note is many times greater than
that available to Phoenix competitors.
"Phoenix's
ultimate goal is to build for you the best possible musical
instrument. One that will give you endless hours of
enjoyment, and like all works of art, be totally
unique."
