The story
Recorded by Angus Roberts-Carey in the dry soundstage of Spitfire Audio’s Studio B, this Harmonium (or Reed Organ) has bags of character. From every creek of the pedals, to the bellowing of the pumps, you can hear the full experience of this instrument recorded in surround.
The magic of sampling allows you to fade between the stops instead of just having them on or off.

3 x Stereo Pairs

Really pumps that organ rich soumd.
I really love this old organ sound. Well done in every way. Thank you for taking the time to put this together.
Awesome
Love this Harmonium. The DS version struggles quite a bit/CPU hog but the Kontakt version is rock solid. Excellent work!
Amazing sound but...
it seems the round robins are not matching in release, volume and panning.
So much grit and character
I love the feel and sound of this. The swells in particular are great with a big 'verb on it. Thanks so much Angus!
Cool organ
I love the clanky old sound of the harmonium, it's totally distinctive and a bunch of fun to play with.
Similar to another reviewer, sometimes I noticed samples not playing (Kontakt version). I suppose it adds to the clankiness. I'll try the DS version.
