WTB. Good Allen organ audion parts, perhaps from 80's and 90's ADC or MDS series organs etc. Amps, speakers, audio mixer boards(multiple channel and divided expression cababilities a plus.) Expression shoe sensors also. Looking to expand the onboard audion system of my ADC-2160A that I am using with Hauptwerk. Please contact if you can help. Thanks, Allen

I edited my embarrassingly rambling post. It will be helpful if you give more details about exactly what you are trying to do, the number of channels involved, etc. </p>

Looking to add another mixer board with as many channels as possible to the console for use with my Hauptwerk set up. Currently using card reader channels for Hauptwerk, so any increase will be an improvement. After that, I will be looking for more spearkers and a few good amps.Want to use Allen organ parts if possible, as I am working with an Allen ADC2160-A.</P>

I see...yeah the point of my rambling post was that you don't really have to use Allen parts (in terms of speakers and amplifiers). (But there obviously nothing wrong if you do...they are perfectly alright.) I mean, they say their speakers are designed for their audio, and that's true but I've used my audio system for years and it sounds fine. The exception is expression which is a little complicated by the fact that the expression shoe circuitry only works with the ADC mixer. Back when I was thinking of midi-fying my organ, which is quite similar to yours except for having only 1 expression pedal, I had a number of hare-brained ideas for how to do it and allow it to continue to control the swell division...even using a string potentiometer connected to a MIDI resistance-to-velocity modulator! (there's a surprisingly large market of string potentiometer devices, although some of them are expensive, you can get many combinations of string distance traveled to ohms.)</p>
