Wind Supply Ports On Reproduco Organ
By Robert Bartlett

Does anyone have info on the apparent dual pressure input on Reproduco
organs?  There is one large input (3" or 4") and apparently a second
one at about 1".  On my funeral organ, the hose seems to lead to inputs
marked "vent".

Also, I'm looking for a set of 10 pneumatic chimes that was at one time
on my organ.

 [ Air leaving the output of the main pressure regulator (typically
 [ in the housing with the blower) flows through the larger port to
 [ the pipe chests.  Higher pressure air, tapped from the input side
 [ of the main regulator, flows through the smaller port to power
 [ the tubular pneumatic action.  More information at
