Universal VTPO Sound Font Project
With the recent release of the Bret Milan's Hauptwerk Virginia VTPO and the release of the Milan Digital MW 3/31 VTPO for Hauptwerk, there has been a lot of discussion in the forums over the need for a high quality Stereo Theatre Pipe Organ Sound Font that can be used for the MidiTzer and jOrgan to achieve a similar sound quality. If you have any recordings in stereo of an individual Theatre Pipe Organ rank or ranks and have sampled every pipe with 3+ second stereo samples with 2 seconds in between notes. I am willing to act as a clearing house to help the VTPO community build a high quality Universal sound font for everyone to use. If you upload the recordings to the FTP link below, I will volunteer to do the processing of the rank(s) into a Universal Sound Font for MidiTzer and jOrgans VTPO's. What I'm willing to do is remove the blower, wind leakage and background noise from the samples, looping the samples, terracing (balance) the rank(s) and compile them to the Universal Sound Font.
If you have any stereo sample recordings which you think may have too much background, blower or wind noise, please upload them anyway, I have some extremely good software that might be able to remove virtually all background noise without hurting the quality or fidelity of the actual pipe sounds.
The FTP link is: ftp://72.29.87.235/incoming For IE 6 and earlier, when the link opens simply copy the file from your computer and paste it on to the open FTP page window where you will see an existing instruction file there already, be sure to paste on an open, blank area on the page, not on or over top of the instruction file or other files. If you try to paste over an area near one of the existing files your "paste" option will be greyed out and won't work. For IE 7 once you've clicked on the link and are on the FTP page, click on "View" and "Open FTP page in Explorer" then paste your files to a blank area on the page. Be Sure that the Internet Explorer: Tools\Internet Options\Advanced\"Use Passive FTP (for firewall and DSL Modem compatability)" is turned on (checked). Please email me with the details of your upload at: rkallman@allmanmusic.com
With your help we can bring a very high quality free stereo sound font to life for our VTPO community that we can all use and enjoy with our MidiTzer and jOrgans.
