Regarding the sending of the SysEx midi codes to activate the sub/super coupler, have you verified that the filters in the reception are deactivated in the organ Midi menu?
Only "REAL TIME" filter should be activated.
If SysEx filters are also activated, the organ will not receive these data.
(However if you use Hauptwerk I think this filter is already deactivated, to make it work correctly)..

Yes, as I suspected this codes were not implemented in the models in which the tabs for these couplers aren't physically present.

As soon as I receive the SysEx codes for the Local off I will deliver them to you.

Best regards

Hello Dominik.
No, there are two different woofers types in physis (and in general in Viscount organs).
For example, in the Sonus 60 there is a 10" woofer mounted on a 46 liter reflex cabinet tuned to 34.4 Hz. In the Sonus 70, the woofer is larger (if I remember right it is a 12"), mounted in different volume. But a clarification should be made.
Having a bigger woofer doesn't mean it's better. The choice of the woofer (and in general of the audio channels) is made based on the acoustic characteristics of the place where the organ will be installed. This means that a Sonus 60 is designed to be installed mainly at home, where it will perfectly guarantee the reproduction of low frequencies (I currently have two organs installed in different rooms, a Sonus 40 for the baroque repertoire, and a Sonus 60 for the romantic one, and I can say that they reproduce the 32' stops exceptionally very well, in which the first note is 16 hz).
While, a Sonus 70 can also be installed in small chapels because its design at low frequencies guarantees an optimal result even in environments slightly larger than a living room. Clearly, in a church of medium or large dimensions, only internal amplification is insufficient and it is desirable to install external speakers and subwoofers to ensure an optimal result.
It would however be a mistake to evaluate the acoustic performance of the woofer by its dimensions. Many people think that a larger woofer emits more low frequencies, but this is not the case.There are so many other elements to consider. The elements that define the behavior of a loudspeaker are the Thiele/Small parameters, and the size of the woofer is only one element among many others. The choice of the woofer is made on the basis of the loading, the frequency of reflex tuning requirement, and based on the simulations of the behavior in the environment. A 12" woofer could be the right choice in a given situation and wrong in another situation, and you could say the same of the 10" woofer.

Good morning.
You are very kind, but (If the google translator worked well), I think I don't deserve all these compliments.
Unfortunately I don't know the Content personally (assuming there is only this factory in Ermelo), I listened to some demos of their site and their samples seemed very beautiful.
Regarding the (only) internal amplification of the organ, I can say that any organ (of any brand) will be insufficient for a large environment. Internal amplification in these cases is only a "monitor" for the organist, and it is legitimate not to expect great results, because these organs have been designed to be used with many external speakers.
The organs with many internal audio channels are designed to have an optimal performance in a domestic environment (for organist practice), or at most, in a small chapel, but they will always be insufficient in a large environment that will always require external speakers to obtain a realistic result.
I cannot recommend a specific organ, because this evaluation must be done by you personally based on your needs.
Keep in mind that whichever organ you choose, in case it has an insufficient yield in the environment where it will be installed (I assume in a Church), you can always improve it considerably by adding external speakers in the future.

Hi ahlborn,,

Thanks for your very informative contributions (as always). You surely deserve praise!
Do you know what woofer is in my P235 (assuming that Andante didn't alter the audio, but only changed some voices and the drawknob layout)?
I have superb bass too, better and more defined than in any other organ model I did play during the selection process.

Regarding Content, I play a Chapel 227 on regular base, it has plenty of bass but that bass is not very detailed or defined.

Thx in advance, regards,
PM

DE übersetzung:
Vielen Dank für Ihre sehr informativen Beiträge (wie immer). Sie verdienen sicherlich Lob!
Wissen Sie, was für ein Woofer in meinem P235 ist (vorausgesetzt, Andante hat das Audio nicht geändert, sondern nur einige Stimmen und das Drawknob-Layout angepasst)?
Ich habe auch einen hervorragenden Bass, der besser und definierter ist als bei jedem anderen Orgelmodell, das ich während des Auswahlprozesses gespielt habe.

Betreffende Content, ich spiele regelmäßig eine Chapel 227 und die hat plenty Bass, aber dieze bass ist nicht sehr detailliert oder definiert.

BTW: Do you know (how to figure out) the SysEx codes to switch the Local ON/OFF as mentioned in the Physis 1.14.13 release notes? Unfortunately the Physis documentation has not yet been updated.

Hi ahlborn,

Indeed the Chapel 227 is positioned in a corner: behind it is a stone wall, at the right a glass facade. The room is ca 25x15x4 (d-w-h). No external speakers (nevertheless, accompanying 80-120 person is no problem). Main problem is that it's hard to articulate a defined bassline in polyfonic music.
Unfortunately anorther position is convenient (and hardly possible) due to the multifunctionality of the room - so I have to live with it. For external speakers is currently no support from the management.

PS My P235 is placed against the wall (in the living room), nevertheless the Bass is superb. And, at both sides there is no wall or obstacle within, say, 2-4 meters each side (is good for the surround function, I'm told).
