Pipe Organ is our most accurate, sweetest-sounding organ simulation yet, with 22 ranks of simulated pipes and a warm, lush reverberation unit to add life and space to your music.
Pipe Organ is extremely flexible, and allows you to use anything from a single USB MIDI keyboard up to 2 keyboards, pedalboard and 2 expression pedals - Swell and Crescendo - for the full Pipe Organ experience.
Pipe Organ is also a Player Organ - it doesn't even need an organist for you to enjoy its sounds and use it in church, at choir practice, or on the streets at Christmas for caroling.
We provide over 30 pieces of music with the app, all recorded live into the app by UK-based organists, and captured from a wide variety of setups ranging rom a simple single keyboard through a full two manual plus pedals organ. You can expand your collection at any time, by recording or importing pieces, and can play them back and freely share them. Hymns, Christmas Carols, Liturgy, Voluntaries, concert organ classics or popular songs. The built-in hymnal can store up to 1024 tunes within the app using our ultra-compact custom file format, which is typically 2 to 2.5x more compact than MIDI. But you can also save and restore your music collection outside the app or even off your device for peace of mind.
As a musical instrument Pipe Organ can be used at home, for choir practice, in schools, in church services.
As a Player Organ it can be used in all the same situations, but removes the need for an organist. As a replacement for 'Worship CDs' of organ music, Pipe Organ has massive advantages. It costs MUCH less than a set of worship CDs. It has enormous flexibility when playing back songs. The organ itself may be customized - the level of reverberation, the organ's temperament, the organ's overall tuning stability ("time since last tuning"), the organ's pitch (415 or 440Hz A), all can be changed to suit. And for each piece of music within a Service / Recital, the tune's tempo and key can be changed - songs that are too fast, too slow, too high or too low can be made just right for your audience, choir or congregation.
I must say, it is a great app overall, especially taking the price-to-stop-count ratio in hand, but the lack of programmable registrations + the crackling noise when played at full volume across frequencies takes it down a star.
Unbelievable how this app is sitting on a low-star rating!

For the price, etc. this app is a 10 out of 10. Both organ apps by this developer are top notch for what they were intended to do. The odd reviewer who described this app as a (toy) is suspicious at best. Do not be fooled. As this “digital organ” instrument is a recreation at the highest and most serious level. And achieves quite a bit. It is super impressive. And does GREAT just to the Baroque spirit.
Has challenges, but is great. Too bad it’s no longer supported.

Getting the midi parameters worked out can be a PITA. But once you do, it sounds excellent. I’m routing it thru a PA system with subwoofers, and it shakes the house…. and sounds excellent doing it.

Welcome to misty nope land
Whenever i launch it, i play one note and it plays that same note continuously without control. I can’t play any other key because the organ keeps playing that one singular note.
