[sdiy] Electronic organ from the past...

Tue Jan 28 18:01:31 CET 2003

Hello Zoltan:

imho there is little difference between organ and synth...especially
if it is diy.

It would probably be best if you start by finding out what you actually
have... maybe someone could help with a schematic...

or post some photos on your (or a) website so that we might help.

Mostly the list is more synth-oriented but there are a lot of people
with organ or general knowledge that could help.

Contact me off-list if you like to discuss any particular issues...

and BTW this is a much better place for this topic than AH  ;^P
