I don't know where you heard it, Ray, but it certainly is right on the
button. I installed five bass stops for the pedal organ of the pipe organ
I play in the church here. I used a kit by Devtronics (US firm), a Yamaha
HIFI amplifier ( 30 watts) and two vented enclosures, one with a 15"
speaker and the other with a 12 inch plus a mid range horn. The system was
wired to the pedal board with five new stop tabs on the console. I had to
do some changing of some of the voltage divider resistors in the
frequency divider networks to gain a nearly flat response from C1 through
to F30. It provided pedal reed stops in various timbres and volumes to
help with the pedal bass which was a little deficient on this organ. This
was about 16 years ago and I see that now they are all doing it this way.
The system cost about $7000 against pipes that would have cost $30 000 at
least and noone I have met can tell the difference.
The Subbass 16' and Trombone 16' stops certainly move a LOT of air.
