I know that a ceiling  fan in ones practice room will make some strange effects especially at low volume. W

Interesting story. I know that sometimes when I play the B, Leslie in

stop and I have the electric fan going on in the room a few feet away

from the B, I can hear the sound of the organ affected by the fan which

is definitely too fast a tremulant but for some reason it only works

when the organ is played.

Its a wonder Don thought of a fan in the first place and that a

sustaining organ tone is easily affected by a spinning object within

its proximity.

If you study pipe organ tremulant, its also a flap or blade moving in

front of pipes. I don't know if Don's was a variation on a theme or

synchronicity flat out.

How would you like to move this rig to the gig?

Austin organ started in 1893 with its air chest technology. Got a scrim

and replacement bearings for this?

that's so funny - when I was in Jr. High way back, me and a couple

buddies heard a band with a Leslie (one of which we had never seen

before), and we tried to make one of our own using a fan in front of a

amp with a 10" speaker - way too fast, but it sorta had the right sound!

a fan in a hole cut in a wall, and a speaker.
