• Welcome to the Pipe Organ Forum! This is a part of the open community Magle International Music Forums focused on pipe organs (also known as "church organs"), organists, organ music and related topics.

    This forum is intended to be a friendly place where technically advanced organists and beginners (or even non-organists) can feel comfortable having discussions and asking questions. We learn by reading and asking questions, and it is hoped that the beginners (or non-organists) will feel free to ask even the simplest questions, and that the more advanced organists will patiently answer these questions. On the other hand, we encourage complex, technical discussions of technique, music, organ-building, etc. The opinions and observations of a diverse group of people from around the world should prove to be interesting and stimulating to all of us.

    As pipe organ discussions can sometimes become lively, it should be pointed out that this is an open forum. Statements made here are the opinion of the poster, and not necessarily that of the forum itself, its administrator, or its moderators.

We strive to make this a friendly and informative forum for anyone interested in pipe organs and organ music.

GrandOrgue expression problem

HI, I am new to this forum. I am working on my VPO. I am using Hauptwerk and GrandOrgue. Hauptwerk works flawlessly but I am having trouble with GrandOrgue. The keys and pedals play fine. The problem is with the Expression shoes and Crescendo shoe. I can't get GrandOrgue to recognize them I tried all the setting that I can think of. I am using Arduino's and also a light dependent resistor. I have also tried a photometer but I can't get the expression or Crescendo to work with that either. Any help would be grateful. I tried two different sets.

In the code I was using there was line that read:
Serial.write (0); //number zero
and it should have read
Serial.write (0x07); //number zero

it was listed under the expression part of the code.
