I am back to see the Wanamaker Organ again, this time looking at how the organ works. Thanks to Scott Kip and Matthew Taft for showing me more of this one-of-a-kind instrument!

Just don't take the ama out of it!
Fantastic thank you very much
Not an armature. It is a valve. It controls the flow of a gas. Opens or closes a channel to the atmosphere.
You should get a tour of the larger organ in Atlantic City.
Dang. Hundreds of amps at 12v. They either have a copper mine on their hands, or voltage drop must be a bear. ๐๏ธ
Imagine … you're playing the largest organ in the world. The light at the console blinks urgently so you stop playing and answer the phone. "I'm just letting you know that your warranty will expire soon…."
Imagine you were working in one of the lofts with thousands of small pipes, and you tripped and fell on them. lol
Thank you to 1 and ALL, I just Love โค Pipe Organ,s and their Music ๐ถ ๐ต โค!!!!!!
Got to love the smell of old electrics and wood.
That Organ is amazing piece of history !! that building is beautiful .
HEY YES gee Fran Blanche magnificent idea and production, thorough!!!!!!!
YYYYAY the EASY WINNERS AGAIN AND I am in NJ, closer to the Wanamaker organ love it AND the NJ organ is not as fully functioning as baby here the Wanamaker!! Built over the Ocean the atmosphere/ environment is against the NJ organ, it isnt as fully functioning as this Wanamaker!!!
When I was a kid, my dad found an old player piano in a barn. The rubber tubing was mostly rotted, so he rebuilt it with aquarium tubing. The soundboard was cracked and it was hard to stay in tune, but we ultimately had about 100 rolls which we could play.
Very interesting!
How do i get a job there? I want to be an organ mechanic.
Brilliant production, think Ill just stick to rocket science though……..
