Re: 24-Note Organ
By Mike Knudsen

The organ scale just described, in key of Bb, is exactly the same as on my Deleika 20-note machine, which I have been told is the German "standard" scale.

That is, after you leave off the top 4 holes, which you described as "swell (shutters?), x, x, x".

I mention this mostly because I'm looking for more rolls for my organ. I've been told by a Raffi dealer that those rolls will fit mine.

To add to the confusion, Deleika (and others?) also build a 26-note scale, which I would hope adds more bass pipes and accidentals.
