We are about to build a four-manual console to control the EM Skinner
chancel and gallery organs at Riverside Baptist Church in Jacksonville, FL.
Do you want we should run you up one?
Seriously, if you have interest in doing a Skinner style job, here is
what we use:
P&S Organ Supply, office in Cincinnati, OH 800-682-1585:
Keyboards with maple naturals, rosewood sharps
They can do reproduction EMS keycheeks
Talk to Jane Pennells
Harris Precision Products, Whittier, CA 213-693-3442:
Electric DK and tablet units to reproduce EMS
look and feel. V-e-r-y nice! Also, Skinner
style toe pistons.
Talk to Dave or Mark
Solid State Logic, Ann Arbor, MI 800-272-4775:
Multilevel combination actions, multiplex
control systems. Expensive but good.
Talk to Rick Ratcliffe
We build our own console shells. The Jacksonville job will be in stained
red oak, with bird's-eye maple jambs and turned rosewood drawknobs. We
did a 4-man job in 1989 for a Skinner in Savannah GA that was in natural
Honduran mahogany.
