Idea

The idea

The idea is to take all the electronics out and put in our own, interface some microcontrollers to the buttons and sliders on the organ.

Several separate MIDI-devices will be made:

* The button panel on the left.
* The buttons on the bottom of the top panel.
* The piano keys.
* The pedals.
* The top panel with most of the sliders.

We'll put a PC inside of the organ plus an amplifier connected to the original speakers. The PC will run some software (e.g. LMMS) that can interface to MIDI-devices.

what is it?

The type of the organ is Eminent Solina F218.
it is a analog organ, lots of mixer and oscilators inside.
it is prety old, but it has alot of sliders and buttons, and it has 88 keys split into two piano keyboards. single velocity keys.
