    Gosh! I only see the inside part of Rodgers when there is problem to solve and you show us here what's inside the box even explaining things to us. The more we know a brand the more we tend to love it. Thank you, Sirs!

    Great video. I was lucky to tour the Allen facility in the early 2000's in the main show room they had a few of Quantum "church" organs and one of the "theatre" organs. Think it was a four manual one, may have been a five. My dad who is a church organist choir director also played theatre organist in the 50's . He got to play it for awhile.... 🙂Allen staff said it was not too late to change the order from a quantum to the thatre model... They stuck with the original order

    That instrument is absolutely beautiful. It's especially cool that the stops are MIDI controlled.

    I used to sell Allen Organs for Taylor Piano and Organ Co. in Rochester N.Y. back in the '60s. I was blown away even then at the realism. Of course they were all analog then.

    I wonder if this TO-5 is the one up at Lee Maloney's shop in Chicago? That's a big beautiful organ. I'm in the process of custom building a much smaller digital organ using four keyboard manuals I got from two different early 80's Allen church organs for my theatre organ project. I'm not driving 28-channels but more like 8 - 10 when I'm done.

    A delightful informative video! Congratulations! The Allen Organ is a marvel of ingenuity no less than the Pipe Organ in the heydays of J.S. Bach

    What more is there not to love about Allen T0 5? The swell and great manuals being velocity sensitive, effectively making a five manual into a seven manual organ! Now, all you need to do as an option is to make the choir, antiphonal, and solo manuals velocity sensitive and you will have a first, a ten manual organ!

    Amazing. If I can ask a dumb question, how is playing on manuals 1-5 notated on your sheet music (is it)? I assume 110 volts will not do it, are you looking at 220 or more? Amazing, grandady of all instruments! I'm dumbstruck and interested in learning all I can all at once. Thank you for showing us this beast! You have taught me so much.
