We are delighted to have been chosen to build this organ to the specification of Mr David Murray and it was installed in his home in October 2005.

The organ has three manuals and pedals with 96 speaking stops, eight audio channels, a Lexicon reverberation system and external speakers.  The console is  a  Phoenix illuminated side tab console with the Great and  some of the Pedal stops on the right jamb, the Positif and remainder of the pedal stops on the left jamb and the Swell stops in the fascia panel above the top manual. 

Four different specifications are available and are selected through the Phoenix control panel.  For a number of the stops an alternative voice has been assigned and this is indicated in blue in the specification.  In the table below, the secondary (blue) stops indicate that where a stop has an alternate listed in the specification (in blue) that is played rather than the primary (black) voice; where no alternative is given, then the primary (black) voice is played.
