☕ How I Built a Hauptwerk Chamber Organ

Back in 2016 I decided to build a Chamber Organ. I had no experience of building organs, and it was my first exposure to Hauptwerk Software.

After multiple trips to the local DIY store, a lot of head scratching and a lot of looking on Google - I ended with something which I think is awesome, and has become one of the most-hired Chamber Organs in the South of England.

In this video I show you how I did it!
